Taking a huge step forward in terms of musical and creative direction, the 6-track release digs deeper into the journey of navigating adulthood and embracing the uncertainty that comes with the process.
 
“As a band, we’re maturing in our songwriting and the way that we operate as creatives,” shares the five-piece outfit. “We want to grow old with our listeners—which can be scary, but very exciting. A lot of those fears and joys can be found in this collection of songs.”
 
Lyrically, the band’s new EP, Leaving Home expands on introspective and existential themes—sometimes rendered in emotionally blunt details, but most of the time, exhibiting some of the growing pains that one has to go through in their transitional period towards maturity. The promising newcomer explains, “We’ve all been through the wringer the last few years, and this was a much-needed...    less

Written collectively by the band themselves, the song deals with acknowledging how relationships grow stronger over time when creating compromises and weathering storms as partners and as individuals .Given the variety of human experiences, everyone has a lot of thoughts running through their heads that make them question their value to others. Additionally, they trio explains that when people make mistakes or mess up, all of their fears sort of surface and have an effect on the relationship. The song reassures people, though, that someone would still love them despite their faults and transgressions—we can never have enough of that type of love when it's present in your life.
 
Co-produced by frequent collaborator and former bandmate knōwmaad, “ENOUGH” marks the band’s return to their rock-leaning roots, incorporating a brooding,...    less

The song is all about having a good time, feeling happy, and remembering when life was simpler. It also talks about escaping reality and seeking comfort with your favorite person or people.
 
The band's inspiration for this song was having the time of your life. If you could go back in time, these were the days and moments you would want to treasure because they were simple and enjoyable - without any anxieties or hate, only love and good vibes.
 
‘WALKAWAY’ is actually one of the early songs that Franz's wrote. They just revised some parts to make it sound like more Fridge.
 
The official music video of the song is to be released soon.
 
WILL BE AVAILABLE ON ALL MUSIC STREAMING PLATFORMS!
