Alternative, Post Rock collective, Branch to Root have released their new single, ‘Home’.Since the beginning, the band have toured around the UK as a four piece band, spurring on an online fan-base of dedicated listeners.
‘Home’ is an emotional raw track that sways beautifully through ethereal instrumentation and Branch to Root’s powerful expressive musicianship. The biting guitars mournfully twinkle through the icy verses while the raspy vocals coo the tender melody. The instrumentation floats delicately through the verses with an emotional fragility before building into a powerful chorus. The guitars crash off the punchy drum thuds creating the most hair raising and compelling atmosphere as the chorus explodes into an anthemic expression. The lyrics convey that holding onto negative emotions does nothing but impede growth and the band display this perfectly through building the turmoil inflicted instrumentation. Branch to Root create a subtle push and pull effect between the verses and chorus that builds tension beautiful and pours immense passion and emotion into this sublime track.
About the track the band said : “Despite the heartache, we reluctantly wish that those who leave us will get where they need to, mentally and emotionally making it “home”.
