GATES are a ‘hefty sounding’ indie-rock from New Brunswick, New Jersey that has a strong progressive/ambient streak to them. The group (ex-LYDIA, BEARS & BRIGHT LIGHTS) has just released a brand new EP titled The Sun Will Rise and Lead Me Home, and it is available from their Bandcamp page. I kept thinking about THRICE’s slower, more electronically tinged Alchemy Index releases when listening to this, so if that you’re into, definitely give this a listen.
