Surface Tension by Annahstasia
Annahstasia’s latest alt-folk EP is both a delightful tease at a new album and a beyond-words gorgeous collection of songs. Her powerful voice transcends genre and evokes feelings from warmth to love to fear, all encompassed by atmospheric and natural instrumentals. Particularly, the closing track “Stress Test” toes the line of rage and regret; delicately, yet with great purpose, Annahstasia calls back to past loves and implores the ways in which they’ve left an impact. This thoughtful and deliberate EP is warm, captivating, and a little haunting.
