From the gloomy to the happy, we write it up as universal as possible, so that people out there can be related to it,” said Michael Sippan, the vocalist.
The full record stays consistent to what the band has always been about since day one – a heavy metal influenced-hardcore hybrid of sorts mixed with exceptional grunge/alternative rock elements. “We didn’t really veer away from our previous releases. This time we just included more sampling.”
