"Our new album is the sound of being on the edge of hopelessness, while desperately searching for the neon glow of the next party," the band tells Exclaim!
Said record entrances from the opening pulsating synth lines of "A Dark Chapter in Our History" right through to closer "Living in a Coma," taking listeners on a darkly menacing and mesmerizing trip.
