"The first album dropped yesterday, and I didn't anticipate this coming anywhere short of amazing. In their sound, you'll find a much more intimate experience, with both the somber twinkly guitars and emotionally strained vocals you come to expect in a Iwishiwasraining release. Easily these are some of their best songs, by the mere care and passion that went into them. It makes me wonder if there was any inspiration drawn from Russian/Ukrainian emocore. It's a great album, and any fan of the genre's current bands should definitely see what these guys cook up, because I really don't think anyone can do it quite like these fellas from Ohio."

"This exceptional three piece band from Ohio brings with it a plethora of influence and creative ability. Songs are diverse, engaging, and overall just plain lovely (in my own words). Bedroom melancholia that is relaxed without breaking the fast and manic pace of expressive introspection. This is a great way to use elements of a genre to their full capabilities in telling a compelling narrative. One example; using a squacky-styled scream in some of the songs could come across as amateur for many (doesn't bother me too much, though it can sometimes), but the way in which they use it feels very deliberate; slowing it down, picking it back up, changing the pitch... the extent of their creativity is so fucking impressive in what they're able to express. A small detail among many that makes this demo a must amongst skramz bois out there. Also lyrics are super relatable lmao."
