Streaming Now! Montreal’s ETERNAL CLOSURE Present Highly Ambitious New Album “At the Center of It All”; Produced by Chris Donaldson (Cryptopsy)
Montreal’s Eternal Closure has a shiny new album “At the Center of It All – Chapter I” ready for ears. One that is more diverse, heavier, and more technical than anything they have done before.

I finally asked myself question: why am I putting myself in these situations that hurt me, do I enjoy it?! It’s a very personal song for me but I think a lot of people have been there at some point. Looking for real connection from the emotionally unavailable in dead end places.”
