Waterparks have just shared a new two-song demo EP, entitled – deep breath – 2 (A COLLECTION OF UNRELEASED HOME DEMOS, THIS IS NOT J, OR EVEN AN ALBUM, SHUT UP ENJOY).
Consisting of the double-whammy of songs CALL ME BEEP ME and TALKING TO MYSELF, this new music arrives in the wake of the band cancelling their planned INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY 2: LOST IN THE PROPERTY album in August.
In an honest statement on Instagram just a few days ago, frontman Awsten Knight explained of where they’re at right now – and why he wanted to release this new stuff in particular: “Been a weird time for Waterparks. No label, no management, it’s been heavy for me. Been working on a lot of music, finishing the fragrance and Hii Def pop up store, a lot of additional projects we can talk about, some very soon.
“Kinda been the only way to ‘deal’ but I also don’t wanna go ghost on y’all too long because none of what I’m making matters without you. While it’s not close to time for an album, I wanna give you some demos.”
