Relative's new EP features six songs written over the past 5 years. From the oldest, "Predetermined" cowritten by former bassist and longtime friend Josh Wilcox, to the newest, "the body is still warm" written within the last year, the album shows the bands journey through disbanding, destruction, and finally, rebuilding. Though its just a glimpse into the direction they're going with their songwriting, The Progress of Stagnation is a welcome milestone along the way for the band that co-founded Last Minute Records.
