Free Throw- Moments Before The Wind (PREORDER)
CD. Since forming in 2012, FREE THROW's story has been simple: keep going. New records, longer tours, bigger rooms-it's always been another step upward for the Nashville-basedquintet, whose 2014 debut, Those Days Are Gone, has become an era-defining classic in the emo-punk genre, launching them onto global tours with Hot Mulligan and New Found Glory andslots at Slam Dunk, Riot Fest, and The Fest. Every milestone has pushed them ahead, but ontheir sixth LP, Moments Before The Wind (Wax Bodega), that constant charge gradually slows, suspended mid-step, mid-thought, mid-life. Recorded with longtime producer Brett Romnes on either end of the sold-out Those Days Are Gone 10-year tour, the follow-up to 2023's Lessons That We Swear To Keep chronicles a surrealist descent into liminality: a period of intense personal upheaval colored by loss, renewal, reflection, and, ultimately, life-altering joy through the impending birth of a child. The 11-songset is disarmingly real, colored by sonic spontaneity-a swirl of Midwest emo, sweat-soakedpunk fervor, and crashing alternative rock-but also the sort of achingly vulnerable lyricism fansand critics have come to expect from the band. Through it all, Momentsfinds Free Throw still moving, still growing, but now, perhaps more than ever, acutely aware that the path ahead is neither straight nor obvious. There's a quiet confidence guiding them there into a brand-new era, ready for whatever the wind blows their way.
