So how does that feeling manifest? Well, most obviously through the ethereal, ambient and at times haunting atmosphere they’ve created on this record. Be it through synthesised chords or drawn-out vocal harmonies, there’s a dark blue hush that seems to wash over this entire record that thrusts you into a deep state of reflection. 

It’s no surprise then, that this record from Jerkcurb was born out of grief. Grappling with the trauma of losing a parent, Jerkcurb, aka Jacob Read, straddled the ever-changing areas of light and shade that exist through this journey. Through the pensive soundscape in which he has created, he can outrightly bury himself in the sonic darkness, like the title track and ‘The Rocks’. And rather than feel heavy and all-encompassing, they feel necessary and completely cathartic.
