Pinkerton
Abrasive, raw, and deeply uncomfortable. This self-produced pivot traded pop polish for distorted guitars and unflinching, wintery isolation.

Abrasive, feedback-heavy guitars and raw, unpolished vocal cracks replace the bright studio sheen of the band's debut. Self-produced on two-inch tape, this winter record captures a claustrophobic, basement-show atmosphere where the songs feel like unfiltered diary entries written in isolation. The performances are loose, heavy, and occasionally ugly, trading pop perfection for a visceral, confessional vulnerability.
