The new EP from the rock-soul band, The Routine, is a breath of fresh air and we are excited to stream it for you today. The EP on the whole is rich in sound and has excellent production, but we are especially partial to the title track, “Black Tropics” that has a dreamy beach vibe and vibrant beat. Check out the track-by-track info on each song below while you listen to this funky record.

Too Rich: A provocative rock ballad, “Too Rich” brings out the heart & soul of this band with raw emotion. Smooth vocals blended with heavy guitar licks, this song will get your blood pumping and your heart craving loves long past.
Mountain: Hail to the “Mountain” Mother Nature, and all things greater then us. Using ancient rhythms and soulful melody, “Mountain” gives back to the earth and gives thanks for all it’s gifts.
Breaking Bad: Not for the faint of heart, “Breaking Bad” is its own beast. A musical monster that highlights the fantastic rhythm section and takes you on a journey of self discovery. Can you go down, deep underground?
