Kelsey Reckling's punk rock outfit, Reckling, unveil another example off their upcoming EP, Human Nature, which is expected to follow an equally gritty, yet, more realized path than that of their earlier offerings from 2018.
Verbalize is an exercise in genuine, visceral emotions, as well as a demonstration of Reckling's more palatable songwriting side.
Kelsey comments on the new single: "I think this is my favorite song I've ever written. Most of my songs are written retrospectively, often reflecting back on a specific time or feeling. But with Verbalize, it was written in real time during the actual moment, in the middle of all the feelings — and was written as a way of sorting through things.
"It's kind of like vomiting...when you have that bad feeling in your stomach but you're not at the point of having to throw up yet, but you know that when you do throw up, you're gonna feel so much better. Sometimes, you have to exorcise feelings from your body by way of song."
Human Nature will be out on August 12th, 2022.
