The Grebes are releasing a new ep entitled DarkDays//WinterNights on September 13 and previous to that release they premiered two new songs on bandcamp. "WinterNights" and "Colony" and they are so good.
The band mixes folk with indie and they do it so well. "WinterNights" has a nice slow burn to it. It builds up to so many points where it should flow over the top into something massive but The Grebes always keep it controlled which I think works even better. The build up to the overflow happens to much and it's really great to see a band hold back without holding back. The musicianship and vocals are always on too.
"Colony" got me completely fucked up. I won't lie. I got chills, and after reading the facebook post about the song itself it hit even harder. All I can really say is that it's really wonderful to see a person who has dealt with heavy abandonment and who has channeled those feelings and has created something so powerful and inspiring. My hat goes off to you my friend. Thank you for this.
Stream both of these songs on bandcamp.
See them on the 14th at the Middle East.
