With Ephemeris, From Sheep to Wolves turn inward, crafting what they describe as a musical diary — a record shaped by memory, emotional confrontation, and the tension between light and darkness. Conceived as a cinematic journey through self-discovery, the album navigates childhood nostalgia, societal disillusionment, rejection, perseverance, and personal awakening. Blending versatility with raw honesty, the band channels both direct experiences and empathic reflections into a work that moves between vulnerability and defiance.
