about

"There is darker tinge to the latent heaviness in the angular groove of ” I’m Made of Plastic” – it’s vague in its allusions to stoner rock. This is one of the album’s most original songs, because you can’t pin it to one sub-genre, much less a band they are drawing inspiration from. Not that their influences aren’t more apparent in certain portions of the album. They find more crunch in the closing song (and Spark) finding a perfect balance of clean, effected guitar tones with a organic heavy feeling, so it never feels like you listening to mall metal, though at times comparisons to bands like Hum and Helmet could apply. I can appreciate how steeped in various angles of the 90s these cats are.
This is a live recording, which is even more impressive. Either they were running into a board of Clemson radio station, or someone really knew how to mic a room. This session is a easy listen that combines genres seamlessly. They have only been together for a year, so I look forward to what the future holds for these guys and hearing what kind of range they might encompass on a full length. Doom is one of my favorite sub-genres of metal, but I feel the band’s potential really lies into this unique blend of morose indie rock." - Will Cifer of Cvlt Nation
