02 / THE STORY
Behind the album.
EDITORIAL DRAFT · FOR REVIEW
Rise From Below opens this listening sequence. Paladins, Gamorah and Revalation give the collection a language of struggle, resolve and revelation. The working album story is a passage from shadow toward hope.
Natural Drug Odyssey comes from Christopher Pick, a Northern California polymath. Guitarist first, synthhead after; the project moves across genres through the feeling each song needs to carry.

Weight
