Misfortune has appeared tonight, and you ask why
Casualty at your feet, as you grieve
Face to the ground as a crowd surrounds…The water pours down
Blood on the pavement, an ambulance arrives
Rain falls upon the innocent as sirens fade away
Come the waves of uniforms like a perfect storm
You will speak of apologies for what you can’t ignore
Blood on the pavement and an ambulance arrives
Rain falls upon the innocent as the sirens fade away
A calamity has come to pass again, a calamity has come to pass again

Sludge, Shoegaze, Atmospheric, Heavy Metal, Alt-metal, you name it. This album has it all, and it is perfect. It came out during a rough time period of my life and others lives too. It's been the soundtrack for all of my pain. Thank you Hum tawper
Your music connects on every level, whether it’s physical, emotional or spiritual. Impressive musicianship and song writing. Love how you leave this undefined space for us listeners to draw our own images and blend in our own personal lives when listening. Beacons is one of my favorite albums of all time! olaussem
vivid memory of this album is that I listened to it during my (I think) final exams at school before I graduated. something about it was perfect and I did pretty well so thanks cloudkicker very cool katsumashi
The Arizona band do right by post-hardcore on their immersive new LP, leavening untempered breakdowns with carefully-measured catharsis. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 20, 2018
