Brooklyn based musician Ryan Gross is back with a new single, Through Tryin'. It seems that he still not done with the breakup that was the inspired him to write Panties, the debut from his solo project Skinny Dippers. For a guy who is feeling down he sounds actually quite cheerful, telling the other party that he has had enough amidst upbeat guitars on top of a gentle tugging backbeat.
He names Stephen Malkmus as one of his heroes, an artist who deserves his own chapter in the passive-agressive songwriting handbook. Gross bowes out with a mean power chord, a short burst of anger that finally manages to come to the surface.
