Pre-order The Earth’s Relief

The overall atmosphere of the upcoming album creates a sci-fi and dystopian atmosphere. With their formal music training, the band sets a barrier around their sound, combining the afrobeat influence with the methodical flow. Speaking on the album, Trrmà tells us :“The Earth’s reliefs” is dedicated to unreachable peaks, at the same time it represents the desire to challenge the highest goals, a metaphor for the research behind our music with which we always try to surprise ourselves.”
