Why do we like this?

It's all About The Angst, Baby

The Percussion track in this song alone had me hooked, but when the angsty riff of strings came through I was shook.

"Breaking The Waves" sounds angsty and I love it. It's almost like a soft punky sound that is reminiscent of the alt-rock movement of the 2000s. It's a dope little sound that has been floating around and only now have I heard it again in its pure sound — like a little time capsule. The song is a reminder of the angst we all feel in our strange youthful lives (specifically high school.)

"Breaking The Waves" is all about the slow build of angst, that walk we all do down the neighborhood street, contemplating the people we miss, the frustrations we feel, and everything in between.
