"Paper Comb" introduces their signature friction: Kohl’s drums enter like a hesitant heartbeat, while Adler’s Mellotron adds a woozy, disorienting sweetness. The song’s bridge breaks into a chaotic, fuzzed-out guitar solo (Grant’s only moment of distortion on the EP), then collapses back into silence. The message is clear: sweetness is fragile. Album One: Comb & Thorn (2014) Their full-length debut refines the metaphor. The title track, "Comb," is a six-minute centerpiece that builds from a single bass note to a cathedral of layered vocals.
