Fusing melody and dissonance, ABRAMS blast forth a cathartic mix of catchy, driving rhythms, soaring vocals and ethereal ambiance. Wielding elements of heavy rock, shoegaze, grunge and post-metal with ease and fluency, they create a crystalline heaviness that's bittersweet and nostalgic yet also gazes forward.
The Denver band's arresting sound finds them sharing terrain with the likes of Torche and Cave-In, while their penchant for crunchy, irresistibly hooky riffs recalls alt-rock icons Hum and Quicksand. Even so, their swirling meld of influences isn't the totality of ABRAMS.
Blue City is where genre-defying heaviness and perfect melodic songcraft converge, a sojourn through lush, cinematic passages and contemplative psychedelia. Its lyrics describe a metaphorical prison, a cold but familiar place where fear of change and the impossibility of action lead to paradoxical, crushing comfort.

Press Quotes
An epic, heavy and melodic sonic journey.
—The Sleeping Shaman
An experience that merits your deepest contemplations and your most vivid daydreams.
—Scream Blast Repeat
The band nails this perfectly grungy, sludgy sound with just the right amount of atmosphere and it works so well.
—Metal Injection
Despite how instant some of the material is, there's a dreamy sort of feel attached to the songs that's infectious and near-omnipresent.
—Wonderbox Metal
