While our tastes span all over the place, those who’ve been around for the long haul on ATH know about our affinity for Midwest emo vibes, just like this new track from Dallas’ Deja Bloom. There are elements of the track where you get that old nostalgic feel, like wavering between a nod to Braid or to the Smoking Popes, neither of which would hurt my feelings. Personally, I love the more pensive nature of the vocals, where things can often get carried with too much urgency; this is a pattern throughout where the song takes extra time spanning all over the place, rather than just rushing to blow your hair back. Really stoked to catch onto this act.
