Cherry's first songs were written in the Philadelphia bedroom of Russell Edling. Recorded slowly to an 8-track tape machine, Edling used the physical limitations of the machine to his advantage. Free of the wormhole of endless tracks and overdubs, Cherry's first contribution to planet earth, a 4-song EP called Gloom, is an exploration into making the most within a confined space. Gloom is full of awkward edits, fuzz and hiss revolving around classic pop formations and repeating hooks, a great introduction to a special new band.
