“‘Spiral’ is a jab in the ribs; quick, intense and unexpected. Instrumentally the drums are relentless, the bass is driving and the guitar melody is cyclical within the chorus, lending itself to the title of the track. Lyrically, the song is all about wading through a sea of chaos, knowing fully that havoc often leads to necessary or positive change. Chaos like this makes me feel like I’m holding my breath underwater. Even though I feel slightly panicked, I know that the first gasp of air is going to be beyond satisfying.“ -Sienna Cureton-Mahoney (Pearl)

“I’m a great believer in the less I know, the more original my ideas will be. There are too many rules and regulations telling you how to play a chord, how to write a song, what amp or effect to use to get a certain sound. I find my choice of sound creation to be completely random and open to circumstance.” – Brian Futter

Defying conventional, perpetual myths that artists must consciously reinvent themselves, a deep dive retrospective at the band’s working class trajectory reveals a singular path on the perennial edge of a larger, opportunistic breakthrough.
