Versaemerge released their latest EP in February, their first EP under their new label. The Fueled by Ramen newbie’s self-titled EP is made up of six tracks, including a re-recording of Clocks, their “Perceptions” EP that was released last summer.
The EP starts off with an intro track properly titled Theatrics. The 39-second track features a powerfully dark and mesmerizing piano solo that builds an excitement to the start of the next track, The Hider.
The Hider does not skip a beat, immediately beginning with the lead singer’s Sierra’s vocals as though the first two tracks were one.
The third track, Past Praying For, is a strong rock track with thundering drumbeats and equally powerful guitar rhythms. With such vibrantly loud instruments the lead singer’s voice matches their intensity very well, not letting her vocals become overshadowed by them.
Throughout the next three tracks Versaemerge continue the momentum they started with.
Their last track is Clocks, which was previously recorded when they unsigned. The only difference was the tempo of the track that was slowed down a bit.
Since signing to Fueled by Ramen and the release of their latest EP, Versaemerge have kept busy touring and promoting to larger audiences.
They are currently on tour with Craig Owens, The Color Fred, The Gay Blades and Ace Enders. In April they will go across seas to the United Kingdom and Belgium. They will continue touring until the end of the summer as part of the Vans Warped Tour starting in California in late June.
With all their touring this year Versaemerge is bound to create a good name for themselves among the crop of young rock musicians pluck from Myspace obscurity.
