Moral Panic (album)

The band started composing the songs for the album in the early 2019. Although its release coincided with COVID-19 pandemic and a lot of related anxiety and tension in the society, the idea for the album (including its title and even the first single, Is Everybody Going Crazy?) came prior to that and took inspiration from various social issues in the world. ==Release and promotion==
