Shadowlife

A sharp pivot into the murky, detuned world of 90s alternative. Gone is the neon polish, replaced by gritty riffs and a cynical, grounded perspective.

Find on Amazon

The one where the 80s guitar gods tried to out-grunge Soundgarden.

A heavy, disillusioned exploration of identity and internal conflict set against a murky 90s backdrop.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition to a sludge-heavy, detuned riff on Puppet on a String that signals the death of their hair metal era.
The psychedelic, swirling guitar textures on I Feel that prioritize atmosphere over technical speed.
The vulnerable, almost whispered vocal delivery in the opening of Until I Know.
