The Last Broadcast

A widescreen masterpiece of Northern grit and cinematic euphoria. Shimmering guitars, driving rhythms, and bittersweet melodies for the first light of dawn.

It's the sound of the sun coming up over a grey city, and it's absolutely massive.

A triumphant surge of euphoria that emerges from a foundation of Northern grit and wistful reflection.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The transition in 'There Goes the Fear' where the driving beat dissolves into a Brazilian-influenced percussion breakdown.

The sheer percussive force of 'Pounding' kicking in after the atmospheric tension of the preceding tracks.

The heart-swelling brass arrangement that elevates the final chorus of 'Caught by the River' into a cinematic finale.
