Regeneration, Vancouver band Weird Candle's debut LP, was made in frenzy of excitement, beginning with the tracks "Regeneration" and "Science." The band had found their sound through months of co-producing and writing together, with Caleb Blag beginning with drum beats and lead synth and Kilroy Katerwol on bass synth and vocals. They drew inspiration from '80s industrial and darkwave, as well as from playing with admired locals like //Zoo, Koban, and Animal Bodies. Katerwol's lyrics are dark and abrasive, and are delivered through sharp rhythmic bursts, rather than sung. He tells a story through his words, an intimate reveal of his own personal deaths and rebirths, ups and downs; it's a story of hardship, tragic love, and of ongoing mental turbulence in relation to the world around him.
