As we contemplate the new year... here in the southern hemisphere... we are heartened by the rise of Philly post-punk emo rock. Yes, they are here. Leads that stroke, beats that hunt, lyrics that haunt, melodies are discordant, harmonies blend with bounces ~ I love this stuff. The freshman release is great, and the early lead-ins below will make you believe. I do... gr8 rising band IMO. Enjoyed on New Year's Eve with an outstanding NZ hazy IPA, Waitoa Afterglow ~ this is the best I've had here thus far.

UPDATE 22Jan23... I've been enjoying the freshman album "Where The Heart Is" so much that I went back to bandcamp and bought earlier "compilation" EPs of their ~8 singles done from 2019-2021, before "Where..." They've delivered consistently great material and decent recordings ~ somehow they've had a tight sound and good songs from the very beginning of recording (though the recent stuff is even better along each vector). Wow.
