Important Things
is from god knows where not in this hemisphere. Slightly lo-fi
recordings and very moody lyrics, Just
Fine
is an emo/punk release about being Just Fine. Hitting the longer side
of run times, the four song release does quite a good job at showing
off what the band can do. It's always cool for me to see an emo band
that isn't also a twinkle band. Sometimes the two genres seem to be
the same, but there is a difference. Anyway, simple to intermediate
guitar playing, raspy, not on tone singing (in some weird accent),
simple drums and bass, I found myself spacing out and listening to
this release multiple times.

Waiting, for some sign for my escape
Production wise, the entire thing is bordering lo-fi, and everything
is mixed well, but the drums (dat snare tone) stand out to me most of
all, aside from the lyrics. I do like how the guitar is kind of
really simple but effective. Can't really hear the bass but you can
tell it's there which is what it's needed for if you know what I
mean.
There are some really cool things going on in "Suffolk County",
which make it the track that stands out to me most of all music wise.
At times I feel like the band isn't on time together, missing the one
beat and such, but they always bring it back together and recover
pretty well. Overall this is a normal emo music release that you'll
find normally. Check it out, it's definitly something.
Favorite track: Suffolk County
