“Cut the Ties” is a captivating track from Los Angeles-based quartet supergloom, touting immersive growth throughout. The gentle guitar tones cast a hypnotic spell initially, gearing into heavier distortion rounding the two-minute mark. The track balances delicate dream-pop charm with intensifying alt-rock vigor, consuming thoroughly. More scaled-back vocals — “it’s not worth it, is it?” — craft a psych-friendly spell as the three-minute turn approaches, launching again into a soaring guitar-led resonance that develops into a satisfying conclusion. “Cut the Ties” is an engaging, versatile rocker from supergloom.
Per supergloom: “This song is about shedding the facade of being someone or something you are not and embracing who you really are.”
