“recalls shades of Katatonia’s melancholy rock and gossamer interpretation’s of Weakling’s dark, hypnotic melodies, infusing each composition with an ethereal amalgamation of post-rock, dusky goth-pop, and the faintest shadow of black metal. The interplay between the guitars works beautifully, as the warmth of the acoustic and cold steel strings of the electric mesh seamlessly and highlight one another in turn. Melancholia abounds. The aim is to awe, rather than to shock. Atmosphere is everything. Delicacy and restraint are essentials tools.” - Kim Kelly, Pitchfork
