REVIEW

The latest EP from Nashville-based solo shoegaze artist greedi.

Known for heavy, melancholic shoegaze that draws lineage from Whirr and Deftones, the EP immediately immerses listeners in a chilling atmosphere with the opening tracks #1 “Writhe” and #2 “Like You.” #4 “Soft Crash” explores driving, high-energy shoegaze, while #5 “Safe” drifts in a Slowdive-esque shimmer, evoking the grandeur of sunlight spreading across a snowy plain. This range demonstrates a clear expansion of expressive scope, and among the younger Nu-Gaze acts, greedi stands out for maintaining a strong, traditional shoegaze sensibility. The vocals are notably skillful, and the overall potential of the EP is high.

That said, the production still retains a DIY feel, suggesting room for further growth. With refined production and the addition of a stronger personal signature, future releases could become even more compelling. Since the self-produced single “fatty,” greedi has embraced greater creative control, noting that it allows “the full spectrum of self-expression to be embedded into each track.” Listening confirms a tangible increase in sonic presence and depth, signaling exciting developments ahead.
