Before you read this review, I must warn you. This album is unlike anything that you have ever listened to before. This genre might be completely foreign to your ears, but don't dismiss this album based solely on its electronic, indie, slasher-flick-inspired genre. If you give it a fair chance,...
Warning: Very minor spoilers of: Captain America: The winter Soldier, Captain America: The First Avenger, and The Avengers. It’s hardly anything but if you want to watch the movies 100% uninformed then beware.

Trawl EP Review
Released March 10, 2014
Genre: Indie Rock, Post-Punk, Alternative Rock
Debut EPs should accomplish three things: 1) They should showcase artistic strengths, 2) they should be a preview of what to expect from your band, and 3) they should leave listeners wanting more. It’s an effective marketing strategy, make three to five songs, release it, and then continue on...
