In a business based on half-truths and compromises, we stand in the small crowd of bands more concerned with heart-felt lyrics and unique and interesting music than with image; we make music that moves us, not cookie-cutter copies of watered-down mainstream rock. We're neither social activists, nor preachers, nor eternally-sad emo kids – we're musicians. In the footsteps of Blindside, Project 86, mewithoutYou, and Underoath, we forge a new sound.
We've played all around Portland with local and national bands, performing a unique blend of hard rock, indie and alternative. We've managed to avoid the clichés of the modern rock scene by sticking to the music and writing meaningful lyrics. In our songs you won't find angry rants about the government, pathetic crying about past girlfriends or even worse - meaningless nonsense. Our songs deal with life that we've experienced, the love that makes all pain disappear, and death that left us grasping at meaning.
We're serious about our music - we pour our body, heart and soul into every performance, making for a memorable and energetic live show. All of us are multi-instrumentalists and singers, constantly pursuing a deeper understanding of music and composition. This makes songwriting a collaborative effort and results in the intricate blend of styles and sounds that are heard on every one of our songs.
