ARRIVAL OF AUTUMN - Kingdom Undone - LP - Orange Vinyl [MAY 26]

LP - Limited Edition Orange Vinyl. 

Arrival of Autumn return with their second full-length offering, Kingdom Undone. The band bulldoze the way for Kingdom Undone with the single “Ghosts.” On the track, a pummeling riff twists and turns around a thick beat as guttural verses give way to a haunting and hypnotic refrain confronting “genocidal hate.”

“Canada has a very big indigenous population,” he goes on. “Recently, they’ve found the unmarked graves of native children all around the country. When the Catholics came over, they tried to assimilate the natives and make them Catholic. They didn’t show much regard for human life, so they put them in the ground when they died and didn’t mark the graves. They were abused and beaten. The song straight up addresses the church’s hand in it.”

Incendiary fretwork blazes throughout “Scars.” Maintaining this momentum, the trudging rhythm collides with a hammering hook, “Why don’t you show your scars?”

“One More Day” gallops towards a cathartic chorus with a reminder to keep fighting in the face of adversity. “It’s heavy,” he says. “You’re at the end of the rope, and you’re working a shitty job with people you hate. Things aren’t getting better, but the message is to hang on for one more day.”

Then, there’s “Bury Me.” On the latter, a searing solo ruptures the guillotine-sharp groove in the space between another chantable crescendo and searing scream. Meanwhile, Kingdom Undone culminates on a final blast of uncontainable emotion.

In the end, Arrival of Autumn arrive with an undeniable vision of their own.
