    This is a perfect EP, top to bottom it flows and it has a blend of music and it’s amazing!!
    Courtney and Mike both confirmed that now, they will start writing for album #2 đŸ”„đŸ€˜đŸ»

      Me too. I think it's the melody of the chorus that really resonates with me.

    They filmed the video for Ultraviolet not only as a one-take but at four different frame rates! Which is really crazy when you consider that Courtney would have had to sing (or mouth at least) the vocals to sync with the different speeds, on top of the movements.

    Ultraviolet and Too Close/ Too Late are my absolute favourites. Weirdly, Angel Eyes didnt do much for me, its still a banger, but just a little bit generic for me. Overall, this EP is just incredible. I didnt think they'd top Jaded tbh, but they did.
    Also, if you listen to the songs in their correct order, Ultraviolet is the last one, and it references earlier songs in the EP. Definitely pay attention to the lyrics throughout this entire EP, they're telling a story.

      Definitely a story being told about how we can get lost in self-doubt and believe what we think others feel about us.
      Love the through-line and the resolution in Ultraviolet's bridge/outro.

    @takoshihitsamaru4675 Pƙed 8 měsĂ­ci +3

    Loved the triple threat, guys!
    So, for the keen lyrical observer, there's a lot of ties between these 6 tracks. The most notable are mentions of a "crimson key", and the theme of her goals being "too close, and too late" then at the end in Ultraviolent "never too close, never too late".
    Very cool EP, love all the layers and degrees of metal present :)

    The menacing glare in Angel Eyes, in my opinion, is the face of pain (sadness, loss). When you’ve lost someone/something you hold close.
    Keeping your innocence with you is hard as you grow older and experience hardship, you almost feel like two separate people. 50/50 all the time.

    You mentioned the male vocal. Mike said in a recent stream that he's actually done vocals, usually harsh vocals, on many Spiritbox songs on every release. He's just blended in the mix. He said he'd love to do it live but he doesn't feel up to performing guitar and vocals live, so for now at least it's a studio-only thing.
