Purgatory/Paradise

Throwing Muses

A 65-track mosaic of jagged art-rock and coastal surrealism. Shifting from skeletal miniatures to full-band intensity, it feels like a map of a private world.

A restless, coastal fever dream that feels both deeply private and geographically grounded.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the skeletal instrumental of 'Smokey Hands' into the sudden, urgent vocal delivery of the main track.
The way 'Slippershell' stretches out into a rare moment of sustained, melodic expansion amidst the album's shorter fragments.
The recurring 'Morning Birds' motifs that act as a sonic anchor, grounding the listener in a specific, waking-up feeling.
