The band’s first all-original album is a detailed musical self-portrait. Painted with richly colored piano melodies and grooves, this album mixes funky drum pulses with clever bass lines, making for music that gets into your bones. Lyric-less throughout, the keys act as the vocalist on a number of the record’s pieces with exceptions surprising us on tracks like “My Friend Metatron” where we feel the bass speaking to us, keeping us ever-interested in the sounds to come.
