Xenotaph' is FALLUJAH personified, reinvigorated, and re-imagined. “Having numerous self-sufficient writers in the band who all agreed on a shared vision allowed us to work as a te am to make sure every song was intense, detailed, and dynamic but not overbearing in any aspect, at least to our tastes,” Carstairs says. “We spent many hours trying out different arrangements and had a goal from the beginning to keep the song structures fast-paced and dense with tons of different parts in each song. We also tried to push the music in a simultaneously more melodic and more technical/progressive direction—even crazier riffs and solos balanced out by atmospheric moments and more prominent clean vocal hooks.” As a details-oriented record 'Xenotaph' benefits from moments of low tension, atmospheric delight, and Schaefer’s winged clean vocals.
