The EP consists of four songs, all of which represent quite a departure from the otherworldly experimentalism of previous releases. The sound here is more immediate, more confident, a step towards psych tinged folk rock. They sound more like super-chill campfire jams than shamanistic campfire wails. The good news is that each track is great! Check them out in the player below.

I suppose it’s important to bear in mind that what we’re listening to is not quite the finished product. As Kupillas says on his Bandcamp page, “Here is a moment, imperfect as it was, captured and dressed for you. This isn’t all of it. This is a first glance of what was. There is more to come.” I for one am certainly excited for what comes next.
