Vermont – Self-Titled EP

Being locked away in self-isolation will fill anybody with angst. Luckily Melbourne emo/alt-rock four pierce Vermont have just the cure with their debut self-titled EP

The four track offering is filled with classic alt-rock that blends fear, anxiety, anger, and fury with vulnerability, passion, and honesty. Throughout the punchy sub 15 minute listen Vermont dips their toes into exploring relationships, growing up and finding an identity.

While this EP is incredibly crisp in regards to the production it unfortunately fails to stand out from the crowd. Vermont’s debut EP is disappointingly far too similar to everything else within the genre.
