Aviators - Sainthood and Sanctuary (Dark Alternative | Album Pre-Order)

PRE-ORDER THE CINEMATIC FUTURE and get this song right away! https://soundoftheaviators.bandcamp.com/album/the-cinematic-future Sainthood and Sanctuary is a sorrowful song of betrayal and the extreme measures one would take just for the promise of safety. In the year 2220, the song's narrator has given into the false promises of his city's ruling cult in the hopes of finding safety in their temple. Instead of salvation, he finds himself trapped and constantly spied upon as his desire for safety in righteousness leaves him alone once again. Musically, this one is a weird rock/acoustic/alternative fusion that ends up being kind of an experiment in strange 3/4 drum lines. It's dark, yet soft, and serves to hint towards the more unique styles to come in the rest of the album.
