About the album

The band made this record at Chango Gridlock Studio with producer Cameron Mizell, who engineered, mixed and mastered it too. They signed to Rise Records in November 2009, toured with We Came as Romans, Broadway and Tides of Man, and the album came out in March 2010 after a day of streaming online. It debuted at number 7 on Billboard's Top Heatseekers chart and is the only album with guitarists Brandon McMaster and Nick Trombino.

Most of the reviews singled out Quinn, and fair enough: his voice gives the post-hardcore crunch of 'The Bomb Dot Com V2.0' and 'Let Love Bleed Red' a lift few bands in the scene could match. The last song is titled with a YouTube web address, which is either a stroke of genius or the most 2010 thing ever committed to vinyl.

An incredibly solid debut.
