Using only bass, electronic elements, and percussion, we developed this track over the course of the summer.” Pre-order or pre-save the album at the link below, available digitally, on CD, and a whole bunch of unique vinyl variants. |

| Their latest single “Terminal” was released with an accompanying music video which includes a bonus track “(liminal);” off Iridescent. Frontman Garrett Russell describes the new single and video as a reflection on time spent in a mental hospital: “For most of my life I have been a very sober person, and this song is about my experience with mind-altering medications while being in-patient. As I took my meds, I watched the world shift around me, and even my own reflection started to shift. I was met with strange visions and imagery, some of which was congruent with ancient mythology. It was during all of this that I began to wonder if the hopelessness was buried too deep for medications to solve on their own. Maybe, I wondered, this is simply the human condition.” |
