A raw, three-track burst of jagged post-punk and feedback-drenched noise. It captures the band's early, unpolished energy before their shift into ambient-pop.

This isn't the lush, dream-like Deerhunter of Halcyon Digest. This is the sound of a band in a hot Atlanta basement, pushing their amps to the point of failure. It feels urgent, sweaty, and slightly dangerous. The guitars don't shimmer; they scrape and bite. It is a document of a band finding their voice through volume and dissonance, stripping away the artifice of indie rock to find something more primal and punishing.
