Delayed Reaction

Soul Asylum

Weathered Midwestern rock balancing ragged punk energy with massive, radio-ready hooks. A restless, guitar-driven record about aging, memory, and staying loud.

It's the sound of your favorite 90s band finally figuring out how to grow up without slowing down.

A high-energy blend of Midwestern grit and melodic yearning that feels both weathered and vital.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive, anthemic surge of the chorus in Gravity that anchors the album’s opening.
The frantic, punk-inflected energy of Let’s All Kill Each Other providing a sharp mid-album jolt.
The slow-burn emotional weight of the five-minute closer I Should’ve Stayed in Bed.
