Review by Gary Hill
These guys were sent via their PR rep as heavy goth rock and post-punk. I can see that, but just based on this track, I've landed them under progressive rock. Sure, there is plenty of goth here, along with heavy rock, but overall the cut has a real progressive rock edge. There is a break that fits particularly well under that heading. So, while perhaps the bulk of the group's outfit doesn't fit there (and I don't know that, as this is all I've heard from them), this one does.
This review is available in book (paperback and hardcover) in Music Street Journal: 2019 Volume 4. More information and purchase links can be found at: garyhillauthor.com/Music-Street-Journal-2019.
