Double Grave is definitely one of Minnesota's best-kept secrets. Since releasing their debut record in 2017, the trio has been working tirelessly, refining their blend of grunge, shoegaze, and alt rock - something that is on full display with the band's newest single, "The Farm."
At its core, "The Farm" grapples with where one is supposed to fit within this existence. Right away in the first verse, vocalist/guitarist Jeremy Warden depicts feeling backed against a wall and lost among the existential horror of reality. A haze of swirling fuzzy guitars, shaped by bassist Bree Meyer and drummer Seth Tracy, supports Warden's haunting voice as he processes his thoughts. The single's mood takes a turn in the second verse during which existential dread is channeled into hope. Warden sings of moving to "the farm" in order to refocus before finding new resolve in the lyrics, "Somewhere away from here / I'll find what I like." The band spends most of the second half jamming out over a shoegaze-y instrumental. Warden's voice returns for one final yearning chorus, singing, "Touch me / Feel me now / I wanna reach out / I wanna."
"The Farm" is the first single off of Double Grave's second full-length record Goodbye, Nowhere!, which is set to be released via Forged Artifacts on August 7. Listen to "The Farm" below.
