no scope [LP] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

A triumphant yet bittersweet quality radiates across no scope — the full-length debut from crushed out September 26th on Ghostly International — delivered with dream pop precision on its lead single “starburn.” Chugging bass and shimmering guitar lines encircle them on the brink of despair, searching for a divine intervention, or “cosmic luck,” as Shawn Durkan explains, “to make me feel like my life could eventually add up to something that made sense to me. I was reflecting on how desperate I've felt for it all to amount to something worthy of the sacrifice. A stable job, a family, my overall well-being…the fear that maybe I'd spent my life in vain searching in the wrong places for some kind of satisfaction and self-worth.” Past press includes Pitchfork, NPR, and Dazed.
