Looming Dawn is another original piece of music making its first appearance on this EP. Previously, Max has had one finger-style acoustic guitar piece (Autumn Evening Light, from Swimming To The Stars B) – and this time it's Jericho's turn to have his own finger-style solo. This track is our first classical guitar piece, which grew out of Jericho's work on the acoustic version of Burning In My Mind. Initially Jericho was going to use this tremolo picking style during the bridge of that song - but rhythmically, it clashed too much with the other instruments. We decided to make it into a solo piece instead, and Jericho extended his original composition to include a longer improvised melodic ending.

Jericho Leal - Classical Guitar
AfterWake is one of the dopest up-and-coming prog bands in Toronto, and we've had the pleasure of sharing the stage with them. TIL is melodic, bouncy, groovy, and emotional in all the right ways. KOZEN
Polarity are veterans in the Toronto prog & rock scene and they've been like our older siblings - we've played with them more than any other band. Proggy, melodic, and powerful. KOZEN
Arrowheads are our brothers from Quebec. We toured with their old band We Throw Flowers back in 2017, and their new project delivers undeniable metalcore/post-hardcore greatness. KOZEN
