Commoner "Change of Heart"

Tucson’s Commoner returns with their latest EP, a three-song journey through transition, escape, and resolution. Blending emo, alternative, and post-hardcore, the band delivers a raw, dynamic sound that balances intensity with vulnerability.

"Change of Heart" captures the ache of shifting relationships and the distance that grows between people: “I run in circles to remind you, you stray away, without a trace.” "Test Your Luck" reflects the desperation of feeling trapped and the moment of breaking free: “Breathe taken again, to the end I’ll pray, know where to aim, shoot right through me.” Finally, "Parting Gift" closes the EP with a cathartic release of resentment, confronting the past with unflinching honesty: “I’ll wait for you to tell me how you’re different, so speak your truth, but I can’t stand the distance.”

Working with producer Zach Tuch (Touche Amore, Knocked Loose, Zulu), Commoner has refined their sound, leaning into soaring melodies, tight rhythms, and an emotional weight that lingers. Influenced by bands like Citizen, Movements, and Incubus, they carve out a space that feels both nostalgic and fresh. With their high-energy live shows and a relentless drive, this is just the beginning.
