Brood22 Unveils Spine-Chilling New EP “just past the exit with the truck stop”

Brood22 recently released their most recent EP “just past the exit with the truck stop,” a dark and contemplative dip into self-reflection. Hailing from the darker corners of the Northwest, this slacker-slowcore musician crafts five tracks exploring the cycling solo isolation and the struggle to break from poisonous habits.

The EP is evocative of a drive through misty roads, guided by the Southern Arizona heritage of Brood22 that quietly echoes in the tones and textures of each song. The EP is a slow burn, low-key style that injects each song with a trance-like pull that anchors listeners. Occasional fuzzed-out riffs and ethereal harmonic leads cut through the mist, bringing a sense of surprised intensity to counterpoint the quiet contemplation.

Just released, “just past the exit with the truck stop” is as impressive for ambiance, as it is for honesty. Brood22’s ability to turn highly intimate moments of discord into spellbinding soundscapes makes for an EP that’s a pleasure from beginning to end.

Slowcore fans and all who are drawn to music that expresses vulnerability as well as power will discover plenty to listen to in Brood22’s latest release.
