A concept album about a submarine engagement during the Cuban missile crisis, as it's instrumental there's no story directly told but the music can be as crushing and oppressive as I imagine a submarine feels with nods to the alarms and that familiar 'ping' of sonar you've heard in a dozen movies. It's a dense post-metal record, huge swirling riffs that remind of Cult of Luna, Helmet, or Black Sabbath with lots of variety, driving drums that sounds fantastic, and enough texture added that I didn't miss having vocals at all which can sometimes happen this kind of thing.
