Soph Day
Sophie sings and plays guitar, her vocals "enter the fray for the first time and they’re like a vapor swirling all around you…it’s impossible to know which direction they’re coming from as they envelope you like a mist" (Heavy Planet).
| Dave Day
Dave plays guitar and "has a way with a riff that is simplistic yet highly effective. He doesn't feel compelled to show off his shredding skills preferring to opt for insistent and memorable sequences of fat as fuck chord work and wailing, old school pentatonic style solos" (Sleeping Shaman)
|
Gaz Imber
Gaz plays bass and "opens with a thunderous bass line evocative of Acid King's 'Heavy Load" (Doomantia)
| Jake Mason
Jake plays drums he "makes enough noise to truly awaken the unholy spirits as the name of their album implies" (Heavy Planet).
