THE DROP
Quicksand have released in-studio live performances recorded for Apple Music Sessions *, ‡. It is reportedly a two-song set †, pairing "Get To It" with "Brown Gargantuan" *.
WHAT TO KNOW
- The session is live, recorded in-studio for Apple Music, with performance video attached *, ‡.
- Two songs confirmed: "Get To It" and "Brown Gargantuan" *. The full tracklist beyond those two is not confirmed.
- "Get To It" got its own live performance video ‡.
- Quicksand are New York post-hardcore veterans, and this is a live document, not new studio material †.
THE TAKE
A two-song session is a small drop, but "Brown Gargantuan" is a deep pull from the early days, and putting it next to newer material says something about how this band still views its own catalog. Quicksand have never been a group that needed studio polish to land, so a stripped in-studio take is the right format for them. The real test is whether those two songs sit together as one band or two eras.
