Lead-single: EMPTY
It’s a brutalist slab of heavily effected droning guitar and bass,
corrosive blasts of feedback and gut-wrenching vocals centred
around the persistence of grief over time.
Deafening sledgehammer.
Screamo disorder.
NIN on acid.

New single: NORTHERN LIGHTS
GDLV: “Northern Lights” is a song that plays with emotions, touching peaks in every direction, transforming for example the concept of solitude, presenting it not as a negative element, but as a companion on the journey toward awareness of one’s condition within the complex design of life. A moment of redemption that explodes in the serenity that comes through a deep and necessary catharsis in the human experience.”
Following the powerfully groovin’ lead-single Off My Chest this 2nd piece
off the album is more laid-back, meditative and emotive until the electrical finale.
