“For this EP, we decided on the 3 songs simply to capture that specific moment in time. I feel that there’s always room for growth, so we constantly keep evolving, we’re stoked and proud to release Molt. With our most focused effort, we present to fans a multitude of experiences in a compact timeframe. This offering allowed us to open and embrace challenges and overcome the obstacles that come with growth,” adds guitarist Will Tennant.
Formed simply as a creative outlet in which there are no rules, Orillia, ON’s Tangents plays music with the idea of no constraints, no guidelines, and producing what they would want to hear. With elements of mathcore, prog, and post-hardcore, Tangents take you on a brutally honest journey with nothing to hide during an emotional and heavy 10 minutes on their latest EP’s three tracks. The band’s goal is to keep the listener on their toes, along with themselves as musicians. Keeping things fresh and ever evolving.
Taking pride that each member of the band is a multi-instrumentalist, Tangents are a bare bones heavy band, and at the end of the day, they get up there and rock out live to showcase very visceral songs. It’s a roller coaster of emotions throughout each track.
Tangents live by the motto “No dragons, no Lasers,” which basically means nothing fancy, just give them electricity and they can play their tunes! No relying on gizmos and gadgets. Check them out live on the No Dragons, No Lasers, Just LobsTour.
