Cistern- New Standard

On New Standard, Cistern tugs at loose threads—frayed friendships, restless nights, the weight of simply existing—until the whole thing unspools in a tangle of wiry riffs and tape-hissed catharsis. The EP pulses with a raw, unvarnished urgency, somewhere between the lurch of early Modest Mouse and the woozy drift of Duster, every note a tightrope walk between control and collapse.
