They are the result of years of musical evolution. With their mix of metal, hard rock, thrash, and blues and a combination of political and bleeding heart lyrics, they are the epitome of metal music. Their songs range from fast and brutally heavy to soft and bittersweet to everything in between. Their instrumental proficiency is stunning for their ages. With all the members under the age of twenty-one, their level of songwriting is extremely rare. It contends with and even surpasses that of some of the major, and indie label artists.
