The Wild Kindness Release New EP

Earlier this year, Austin outfit The Wild Kindness unleashed their “Never Better” single, and with that promised us that there was a new EP on the horizon. Well, today is the day you can stream Featuring “Abandon Ship” in its entirety, as the EP kicks off with the appropriate “Abandon Ship.” The first few singles harken to a sort of early Decemberists style, taking elements of folk and indie rock and weaving them into these giant pieces that swell with movement and emotion; I’ll admit, the lyrical content is a little less abstract, and I’m actually quite appreciative of that aspect. Going through the EP this morning, I’m really enjoying “Change” as my personal favorite, working with a bit more of a headstrong indie rocker…straight and bold with nuanced arrangement giving the track the proper depth.
