Celestial Completion. Instead, we've crafted an album full of the heaviest and most technical songs we've ever written.”[1] It is the first and only release by the band to feature Chris McCane on vocals, Codey Watkins on bass, and Chris Heaton on drums. Guitarist/vocalist Seth Hecox was the only original member from the debut album featured on I Am.
