The future’s cooked, and slow quit are leading its funeral procession. Stygian, echoey shoegaze defines a new batch of dirges from the Boston band, collected via their debut LP, Fusion in Rupture. The record, which arrived earlier this month (August 1), contains songs like “Burt Cokaine” that are “dedicated to this cancellation of the future, our society of decadence in decay, and the fetishizing of an end to all of it,” the group wrote on Instagram, citing the homogenous capitalist labyrinth that is Assembly Square as an example. Fusion in Rupture presents the art of narrating decline, but it isn’t pure gloom and gloom — more like a love letter and an obituary folded into the same envelope. Tune in below.
