Vice Verses

Switchfoot

A heavy, rhythm-forward exploration of life's polarities. Gritty basslines and raspy vocals meet philosophical questions about the space between life and death.

It’s the record where they traded the sunshine for some heavy bass and some really big questions.

A muscular and restless meditation on the dualities of existence, balancing heavy grit with soaring hope.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The aggressive, distorted bass riff that anchors 'Dark Horses' with a swampy, metallic weight.
The rhythmic, almost spoken-word cadence of 'Selling the News' that breaks the band's typical melodic structure.
The sudden transition from the explosive energy of 'Afterlife' to the hushed, vulnerable title track.
