The song is possibly the weakest off the EP, laying off the synth type effect and leaving it just to the guitars to bring the beat, which seams to lower the vibe off the song, but still a track worth listening to. Step down: Is the latest single to be released from the band. The song brings a high level of energy which builds and builds more as the song progresses, lead singer Greta’s strong vocals really works well with the band belting out some amazing notes with velocity. The song talks about heartbreak and how hard it is to cope with that kind of a situation with some very catchy lyrics such as: ‘I'm sick of being left here all alone, I follow you, but its not that simple. I turn around, and you're gone.’ Containing a really amazing atmosphere to the overall feel of the song, this is one not to be missed. This Is The Day: A high impacted, energetic and fun loving song, packed full of catchy lyrics. The song gives off the impression it’s about doubt within a relationship and now this person has left, they are doing better than they have ever done before and now boasting about it, really giving a powerful yet very enjoyable drive to the song. Turn It Off: Kicks off at a really heavy pace, ultimately showing us who these guys really are, then moving into some really amazing and high endurance song. Lead singer nailing the vocals at the exact level of pitch and volume to perform the right harmonics to this amazing and well written song. Panic Room: The song kicks off really fast paced bringing a very powerful and errie sound, telling the story of how a person has been trapped in a relationship, getting cut off from the rest of the world by an obsessed person and trying to find a way out.
