John Vanderslice

Vanderslice is innovative with his sound, using a number of instruments that your ear can’t place, even after repeated listens and attempts to dissect each track’s properties. The first track “Thule Fog” and it’s second track”I’ll Never Live Up To You” are perfect to open the EP with strong technical and lyrical structure. “I’ll Never Live Up To You” juxtaposes it’s fast paced digital backbone with emotionally fraught lyrics about death. As the song unfurls, the lyrics get more confessional and personal, documenting loss in a very real way.
