While I remain in disbelief over the break up of Palm, vocalist and guitarist Kasra Krut reunites with Palm&#8217;s co guitarist\/vocalist and producer to reinvent Kassie Kurt. They have left quite the impression with their new track \u201cReckless.\u201d Kassie Krut has released a few singles here and there since 2020, however last week\u2019s \u201cReckless\u201d cements the spelling of their name in our eardrums to reintroduce themselves in delusional confidence. \u201cReckless\u201d is a promising reincarnation of the group&#8217;s talent, awakening the freak that lives inside all of us. They are fully aware of and are alchemizing their power. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"2\"><li>Mt Eerie: \u201cI Saw Another Bird\u201d&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Mount Eerie - I Saw Another Bird\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sNJ46h1PS_g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThere\u2019s another worked inside this world that shines\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This past week, the fabled Phil Elverum has gifted us \u201cI Saw Another Bird,\u201d ahead of Mt. Eerie\u2019s first new album in 6 years. The track continues the explorations of themes such as ravens and synchronicities that have permeated Mt. Eerie\u2019s discography. Mt. Eerie&#8217;s music deeply reflects Elverum\u2019s journey through grief, making it a vulnerable and poignant form of expression and processing. At times he is optimistic, while at others, he is exhausted from making sense of the mythological. There is always a raw and honest truth that hides behind each Mt. Eerie track, and in this case, it\u2019s complemented by a satisfying drum beat. Some may say that this is The Glow Pt. 3\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"3\"><li>Ela Minus: \u201cBROKEN\u201d<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ela Minus - BROKEN (Official Video)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cF4kF48inMA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Colombian artist Ela Minus released \u201cBROKEN\u201d from her forthcoming album <em>DIA<\/em>. Out of all the songs on my list, \u201cBROKEN\u201d is by far the most impressive with its gorgeous synthesizers and air of optimism. The beat is femme, lush, and easy to latch on to; you&#8217;ll want to dance and jump around with your friends to this track. I am so ready for the world to fall in love with her.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4.

Eerie, another artist that comforts my grief is Florist who released the stunning, \u201cThis Was A Gift.\u201d Florist&#8217;s lyrics and cadence tugs on your emotional heart strings, forcing you to confront the reality of your loss. She explores the unbearable pain of the separation as she repeats: &#8220;only the dead survives.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5.

Almost too hushed that at points, I find myself giggling thinking \u201cwhy are you talking like that?\u201d But her lyrics are sweet and at the end of the day, you get exactly what is expected. There\u2019s nothing terribly wrong with what she is doing, but there is also nothing terrible right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Written by Marina Malin.
