Our EP message directly addresses personal encounters, but also on a scale of viewing situations in another person's perspective.
This band is a strategic way to voice our opinion and share it to a larger audience while still doing what we love. Our vision as a whole is to influence misguided youth in a positive direction being able to relate to our music and lyrics.

Our debut EP "Visceral" now available for FREE download as of
March 4th, 2014.
