Following their debut 2022 LP, “Otherside”, Hollow Suns returns with the EP, “Free Fall”. Tokyo band, Hollow Suns are no strangers to U.S. hardcore/punk and have always had elements of it in their music.

On “Free Fall” which is still present, however, Hollow Suns are diving more into the post-hardcore mix of things, pulling inspiration more from bands like Quicksand, Jawbox, and Helmet.
