The Estranged are a new 3 piece from Portland, Oregon. Members come from the HC/Crust scene,where they have a long history of playing in some of the genre’s most influential bands. Kinda surprising,
then, that on Static Thoughts The Estranged throw us a curve ball and wind up going off in an entirely new direction, exploring ominous, dark (musically and lyrically) post punk ala Wipers meets Mission Of Burma meets Warsaw-era Joy Division.
