Below is a special message written by SHUTDOWN:

This debut EP signifies a new era for all of us involved, treading into unknown territory with this kind of music, both technically and stylistically. It's definitely my first proper foray into writing rock music that isn't cheap riffage, and it took a lot of work, but I really like what we've got here in the end.

TYLER had some adjusting to do to the way I write chords on guitar (sorry dude) but he killed it in the end despite fending off a panic attack during our ONE DAY of recording. 12 hours straight in the studio.
HIRO just killed it. Seriously, the one thing I didn't have much direction over was how the keyboard parts would play out, and they played out so well in our favor.

I really have to give special thanks to Gavin Casey and Robert Wilhelm, our featured drummer and bassist. Without them, this record could not have turned out ANYWHERE near the way it did. I hope their grooves bring you as much joy as they did me, AT LEAST. (maybe I wasn't very good at expressing that in person :P)

I would also like to thank Alex Talarico, Mason Manteau, Damian Doyle, and Benny Tuong. Without them, nothing would have been recorded and I would have been on a miserable 8-hour flight from NY back to Sweden.

And if you've made it this far, we dedicate this EP to you, for hearing us out, even if this music isn't your cup of tea!
Additionally, this EP is dedicated to any and all creative persons who pursue their art despite dire circumstances. For example, the push for generative AI to replace human work can be extremely demoralizing, but remember that it comes from a lack of understanding rather than a love for art, and as long as creativity exists inside us, it will have an outlet.

AI ART IS NOT ART.
