It follows the story of someone who, upon finding themselves in the afterlife aft

Since we're unable to bring our songs to you live at the moment, we'll be spending the next few weeks taking an in-depth look at our recorded tracks, on both our social media and here on our website. This week, we have our first single release - 'Continuance'. 'Continuance' is, more than anything, a message of hope in the darkest of times: a parable told from the perspective of one who, even though the world is ending, breaks free from the shackles holding them back and faces
