Below the surface is a deep well of transformative soundscapes laid out in vivid and painstaking detail. The album takes on themes of betrayal, cynicism, toxic relationships, inner demons, and self-destructive tendencies through a musical lens as a deeply personal albeit chaotic release. Through thrashing guitars, layered into thunderous percussion, and electronic elements, laced with thought provoking lyrics that have to be screamed not just sung, Coping Method weaving these intricate emotions into their music.
The spirit of the album can be summed up with one quote from band member Jed Stark. “You are not alone; your struggles matter, and you deserve to receive help.”
Beneath the mystifying cloak of ambiguity lies vulnerability. Coping Method thrives in the shadows of the human psyche, exploring unfiltered rumination via a marriage of metal and dark EDM. Those who participate in their exercises, classified as “trainees,” are encouraged to lose themselves in each sonic wave. Underneath the brooding veneer of the organization is a yearning to connect with each trainee, providing an outlet for their struggles. Instructors Tyler Simpson (Vocals), Jed Stark (Guitar/Synth), and Chad Wunderle (Drums) believe in the message with every fiber of their being. By embracing the pulsating soundscapes and sonorous timbres, you too might believe.
