Knives to the Future

Project 86

A cinematic collision of desert-noir atmosphere and heavy rock. Dense, rhythmic, and intellectually dark, it trades typical metal tropes for high-stakes tension.

Find on Amazon

It's like a heavy rock version of a neo-noir film set in the desert.

A high-stakes, cinematic tension that balances desert-noir atmosphere with explosive heavy rock.
