Maximalist Chiptune-rock introverts Crying, comprised of vocalist Elaiza Santos (Whatever, Dad), drummer Nick Corbo (Spook Houses, LVL UP), and Ryan Galloway on guitar and Game Boy, are premiering their track "Emblem" today on Stereogum.
With "Emblem", Crying showcases their strong sense of musical and lyrical duality and willingness to challenge the minimalist conventions of chiptunes and the extroverted tendencies of punk. Amidst the whirlwind of blistering rock chords, Gameboy blips, and cymbal crashes, singer Elaiza provides an engaging vocal, brimming with confidence even as she wears her heart on her sleeve. Expect nothing less than skillfull, tight musicianship, passionate vocal performance of thoughtful introspective lyrics, and punky, melodic rhythms to lift your spirits.
Get Olde Second Wind, Crying's first Run For Cover release, works as both an anthology and a cohesive work, compiling the critically acclaimed self-released EP, "Get Olde," and its brand new, darker and danker sequel, "Second Wind."
