Random Notes

Although EP ††'s track "Prurien†" started out as a metal song in its earliest iteration, the finished version is a gentle track with a catchy synth-beat. ††† (Crosses)'s Shaun Lopez explains that their newest song "is one of about 20 or so we've written, and the initial idea was almost metal. It ultimately morphed into something opposite of that – less aggressive, still big and resonating."

††† (Crosses)'s EP †† will be available on January 24th, and you can download "Prurien†" for free here.
