With the record, we aimed to be uncompromising and really plant our flag,” Matthew McDougal explains. “As more time passes, heavy music continues to lose its teeth. This genre is supposed to be threatening; it should have an edge and make you feel something. We tried to create an album with urgency.”

McDougal, in a recent interview with Revolver, expanded on that, saying the band’s mindset going into writing and recording the 14-track album was to “Spend less time in the middle and more time trying to bring out those extremes, to show our full breadth of what we think we're capable of.”

Early reviews have praised the album as “blistering” (Kerrang!), “vicious” (Consequence), and full of “unrelenting aggression and pure antagonism.” (Knotfest).

"Yearning: the unbeautiful after" was recorded in the Fall of 2025 with producer Drew Fulk (Knocked Loose, Fit For A King) and features guest appearances from The Plot In You’s Landon Tewers (“Crowned and crucified”) and Make Them Suffer’s Sean Harmanis and Alex Reade (“Torn wide open”).

The album is available now via https://sumerian.lnk.to/ytua.
