About Me

DEEP SHIVERS RUN FOR MY DAUGHTER, a 5-song is now available for $5 at shows, through here, or at Landlocked Music. Message us and we can work out the particulars.

Noisy loops, an intensely saturated hollowbody and beats as big as they come - The Alarmists (Calm Down.) blend severe, angular motifs and unexpected changes with cascading 4/4.

One nice thing said about the new record:

"The meld of grinding guitars and slap bass drive the album, akin to what Sonic Youth would sound like if they replaced Kim Gordon with Larry Graham from Sly and the Family Stone. Keeping it afloat is the odd percussion interplay of the dual drummers — one on timpani and the other riding a snare and cymbal."
Dan Coleman for Audibles, The Scene
