Their approach to songwriting feels like a fever dream, where frenetic energy meets clever storytelling.

Each track is a relentless barrage, resembling a series of vignettes that capture fleeting moments of madness and irony, inviting audiences to grapple with both horror and hilarity in equal measure.
Lyrically, they often explore themes of societal absurdity, existential dread, and the grotesque aspects of human nature, delivered with a tongue-in-cheek tone that balances sincerity and irony.
