The 12 songs collected here are intended to signify a new brotherkenzie era: one embracing sex and heathen ideals. The record is a re-introduction to Stocker’s solo output as brotherkenzie his last release, 2020’s BIG WHAT closed the first chapter of the project, while Nathan explores the afterlife of a creative death. A final look-a-round at the dirt you’ve known your whole life before descending to the eternal what-have-you.

Per front man Kyle Durfey, “Something that we really took away from this experience was just the connection we had together. The band lived together, recorded together and ate dinners to gether where they would listen to the day’s recordings, talk about them and pull them apart and reworking them, creat ing what may be their finest album to date.
