It&#8217;s a reflection on the concept of the &#8220;soft boy&#8221; as a sort of emotional Trojan horse. That despite your best efforts to create a safe barrier around yourself, someone can still infiltrate it under the guise of emotional connection. It ultimately brings you to a reckoning with yourself and being resigned to the fact that you can never really know a person until you do.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Corey Flood is a new Ivy Gray-Klein (of the band Littler on Yellow K \/ Birdtapes) fronted dark pop band from Philadelphia, PA. Mixed and Mastered by independent scene mainstay Emily Reo. Corey Flood takes influence from Helium and early Liz Phair, warped &amp; pushed in a gloomier, more post-punk direction. Featuring Noah Jacobson-Carroll and Em Boltz on guitar and Juliette Rando on drums. &#8216;Wish You Hadn&#8217;t,&#8217; the band&#8217;s debut EP, four songs simmer with a quiet fury, Gray-Klein&#8217;s hushed vocals floating above the metronomic drums and minimal, atmospheric guitar. <em>&#8220;There&#8217;s a horse head \/ in my bed,&#8221;<\/em> Gray-Klein almost whispers on the last track, <em>Causeway<\/em>. &#8220;It&#8217;s so hard \/ to be your friend.&#8221; It&#8217;s this kind of disappointment that permeates the EP\u2014but it seems almost cathartic, as though the brutal honesty will lead to a light at the end of the tunnel.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"mcnImage alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/5694861394877ae40d1c9a32c\/images\/d5e347f9-456f-4841-90a7-3fa16646f094.jpg?w=264&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Track list<\/strong><br \/>\n01.
