On 8th March, Irish indie punk band The Winter Passing<\/strong> release their debut EP, ‘Scrapbook,’<\/em>\u00a0a collection of honest, sincere songs that compliments the bands sound which has been compared to Tigers Jaw, Jimmy Eat World and Balance and Composure.<\/p>\n

Vocalist and guitarist Rob Flynn recently took some time out to give us an exclusive track-by-track guide to ‘Scrapbook<\/em>.’<\/em><\/p>\n

1990:<\/strong>
‘1990’<\/em> is a song about coming of age and growing up I guess. It\u2019s directed towards my parents. They always wanted what was best for me growing up and were always there for me but I can\u2019t help feeling that the choices I\u2019ve made in life aren\u2019t the ones they wanted me to make so its pretty much me saying sorry for choosing a different path in life. \u201cLeave a key out and don\u2019t wait up for me, I\u2019ll be home in the morning\u201d<\/em> pretty much means, don\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll be fine in life and we (me and my sister) will all be ok. I just need time to figure this shit out on my own!<\/p>\n

Crooks:<\/strong>
When I was 19 I went to live in America for a couple of months, not that long but it was the longest I\u2019ve ever been out of Ireland. ‘Crooks’<\/em> is a song about the first two days when I returned home and how everything about the town I grew up in got to me and got me down. Same faces walking the streets, same building looking exactly the same and the same personal issues I had before I left. I had those lyrics wrote for over a year and as soon as we started The Winter Passing, it was the first song we wrote. The song still means a lot to me, which is cool because I usually get tired of songs pretty fast.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Gold Blend PT 1:<\/strong>
This is the first song I ever wrote that tells a story in two parts. ‘Gold Blend PT 2’<\/em> came out on our split with Forrest<\/a> a while back so I guess it\u2019ll all make sense if people listen to both songs back to back now, its sort of like a prequel. It\u2019s about a girl, a relationship I was in a few years ago and how the whole thing went down. ‘Gold Blend PT 1’<\/em> deals more about my feelings during the break up while ‘GB PT2’<\/em> deals with coming to terms with it.<\/p>\n

Feels Like:<\/strong>
‘Feels Like’<\/em> is a song about missing something that hasn\u2019t happened yet. It\u2019s basically when two people are on different pages with situations in their life and want different things so the song pretty much explains my situations and what I wanted from that time. I still remember the moment when I said to myself “I\u2019m dying here, I\u2019m dying<\/em>.”<\/em>\u00a0The song came from that line.<\/p>\n

‘Scrapbook’<\/em> EP by The Winter Passing<\/strong> is available in\u00a0three different 7\u201d pre-order packages through\u00a0<\/span>View From The Attic Records<\/a><\/strong>,\u00a0<\/span>Struggletown Records<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span>Something New Records<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n
