While the moments are brief, they are able to create mournfully melodic passages, allowing their intensity to return like an earthquake’s impact in mono-pitched vocals, blended perfectly with the instrumentation. New Forms has a gritty sound with deeply emotional lyrics that are lamentations on memory, trauma, and loss, often tied to themes of nature. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“I have found my voice in this band and it’s allowed me to offer up words to others that I wish someone had spoken to me earlier in life,” White-Valliere plainly explains. “I never want to stop connecting with others and pouring love into the type of community that builds us all up.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNew Forms EP Nothing’s Sacred Anymore is their first release with Iodine Recordings.

It’s about putting out into the world the things we wish someone shared with us at times in our lives when things felt overwhelmingly lonely. We pour our energy, emotions and ourselves into making New Forms something sincere to us.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACK LISTING:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.
