The 2nd album is available.
The new album is a melodic guitar based rock album inclusive of 10 original tracks. Justin states “The 10 tracks were demoed at the end of 2014 and were the first songs I had written and demoed since the recording of the previous (Six Years in the Desert) album . I had a total of about 40 tracks but some how these 10 songs came out like an album. I worked on the demo’s and they took a life and shape of their own. It’s my first attempt at recording and producing an album completely on my own.
The album was recorded between Survival rehearsal studios in North Acton in London and Justin’s studio flat in East London.
The band are currently negotiating a UK tour and have two upcoming London shows
