“We’re incredibly relieved and grateful to have our band back, and absolutely blown away by the response to the first new releases. 'Stars We See' is a sneak peek at the new soundscapes and themes we discovered during our break, and it represents the more hopeful side of the upcoming album.

On 'Painstream,' the band comments:
“In a world filled with uncertainty, conflict, and division, pain is one thing all humans share. Rather than separating us, 'Painstream' explores the idea that pain can unite us, reminding us of our common humanity. We examine pain from personal, societal, and existential perspectives, while also uncovering something unexpected: hope.”
