Blessed are the Bonds

Joseph Parker I was so very excited to find this again and to be able to order the physical release again. I ordered it wayyy back when it was released and lost it in a horrible car accident ten years ago and have been missing it ever since. Thank you guys so much for still offering this masterpiece.

Luke I also got the free CD in 2007 (still have it) and the whole experience then was mind-blowing. But this still stands up as one of the indisputable masterpieces of screamo. Keep coming back.

SXIII I remember ordering this CD in 2007, when the band offered it on their website completely free of charge. I had no idea what to expect and was totally blown away. 15 years later, I'm still returning to this masterpiece ever so often. 'Blessed are the Bonds' is a fully immersive experience that exceeds genres and transcends emotions. An absolute masterpiece!
Still hoping for a vinyl release!
