About the Album

Darksoft's debut album, named after the first PC computer virus. Most songs take their titles from infamous computer viruses and security flaws (Mydoom, Code Red, ILOVEYOU, Heartbleed), using the language of viruses and algorithms to sing about very human feelings. It's '90s-indebted sadcore from the Pacific Northwest: crunchy guitars and crystalline vocal melodies that cut through the fog.
