Spot on pr omschrijft de muziek als 'doom meets shoegaze'. In die zin dat een slepend tempo en verpletterende riffs hand in hand gaan met dromerige melodieên en zang. Qua sfeer kan het alvast tellen. Of dit een heel album kan boeien, valt nog af te wachten, maar getriggerd ben ik alvast.

Frayle is Gwyn Strang and Sean Bilovecky (formerly of Disengage), together who form an artistic nest of reprieve for when so many unwanted layers have been sloughed off, we are raw and worn. Yet we don’t want a cure. We want to feel the burn and freeze of reality against our skin, against our beings. From this place of embodying our senses, of tearing away the mask that covers our sacred vulnerabilities, we are able to actually begin to understand our experience and nurture it, forming a cocoon from which we can emerge indestructible.
Frayle’s “lullabies over chaos” approach to songwriting allows the group the freedom to explore what is possible with heavy music; its gorgeously ominous sound a result of complex layering and tone stacking while simultaneously overseeing the perfectly delicate balance between heaving, heavy riffs and haunting vocal melodies.
