Chastity’s self-titled album burns with the raw energy of suburban survival, channeling the suffocating gray of small-town life into melodic hardcore, emo, and shoegaze epics.

Brandon Williams’ deeply personal songwriting transforms grief and longing into anthems that demand to be played loud. Tracks like “Buzzed and Bleached” surge with skate-punk urgency, while others flirt with softer, country-tinged sounds. This 13-track whirlwind captures the fight to hold onto hope and keep moving forward.
