The Response - Escaping This Cold Rotation
Escaping This Cold Rotation is a full length album from New Zealand alternative pop duo The Response. Recorded between Vancouver and their home of New Zealand the album's fifteen tracks explore the cyclical nature of human thought through adversity while digging deeper into the electronic textures and energetic percussion that have become the duo's signature. Early singles 'Tallest Walls' and 'Practical' have drawn comparisons to Broods, Mura Masa and The 1975.
The album is bookended by the minimalistic tracks 'Analyse' and 'Tell Me When You Know It's Right', the former expressing the need to break the cycle and the later concluding that the answer is outside of yourself. Lyrically and sonically the remainder of the alt pop tracks explore the duality that exists in emotion and circumstance. At the centre sits 'Split In Two', which divides the album into two halves that mirror each other.
