In May 2020 they were set to release their third EP, Chapter 3: The Last Selection [5] , but because of covid-19 pandemic release was postponed, however instead of an EP, the band released it as a full-length debut album [6] . In 2022, they released their second album, Fear & Dagger, which was met with positive reception.
