"The album was recorded by Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Gouge Away, Loma Prieta, etc), and it includes "Breaking Ground" as well as new single "Fade Away," which features guest vocals from screamo legend Jeff Smith of Jeromes Dream. It's a killer song that feels like it could bring fans of all of screamo's different generations together, and it comes with a video by Gabe Herrera that shows off the power of Knumears' live show."
""I think what draws us to this type of music, just like everyone else, is the absolute raw emotion," says guitarist/vocalist Matthew Cole. "We all grew up listening to hardcore, and I think that allows you to see the world in a completely different light-both more creatively and intellectually. Not being raised on music that had nothing real to say was the best thing that happened to us.""
