This was a touching and bittersweet posthumous album for Caleb Scofield. Scofield passed away from injuries sustained in a car accident in 2018. Luckily, Scofield had recorded some parts for Cave In’s next album prior to his death and those parts were incorporated into Last Transmission. Overall, this is a very somber affair that captures the sadness of losing a friend and band member. This one has quite a bit of depth and the emotions that created this album are on full display.
