Sydney-based pop-punk quintet Afterthought has today divulged their wholehearted self-titled EP ‘Afterthought’.
‘Afterthought’ is five tracks of impassioned, resonant punk music, luminously constructed and layered with multicoloured instrumentation and fervent melodies; bleeding with perseverance and encapsulating the foundations on which the band have built their sound upon.
The band explain the themes behind the EP:
“Musically, this EP is a step up in our song writing ability and this is due to us spending far more time demoing and refining each section until we felt that they were right and served the song. We also wanted to move towards a pop-like sound which better reflects the musical direction we’re taking as a band. Lyrically, this EP is a reflection on love and loss, and a yearning for something more. We hope that our lyrics help people understand, navigate and find joy in the wild world that is human relationships.”
