- Circles And Squares

How did I discover them?

This is the story with many of the bands I listen to, and that is that they had a song in a video game. Specifically their song, Circles And Squares, is featured in Saints Row IV, which honestly has such good music choices by the way. 

Why should you give them a listen?

Their songs are like when you are standing in the middle of a thunderstorm. You feel part of something greater. There’s a strange nostalgic feeling as well. It might be just me but they make me think of home. I don’t mean home in a comfy, familiar sense though. I am reminded of the feeling of wanting to get out of my house. Those days where it felt like I was all alone. Honestly the reason I relate to their songs so much is probably because they echo those feelings so strongly. I’m not saying these songs make you sad, quite the opposite. It reminds you of those bad feelings, but it also makes you feel like you can do something about it. Their songs gave me a sense of freedom I wasn’t able to feel by myself. Also, their song is a perfect match for running around and gliding in saints row, trust me.
