Summer may be coming to a close, but Good Terms is just getting it started. Following their April release of “Hear Me Out,” the band shared their latest “stoner emo” track, “Blurry.” Opening with energetic guitar progressions, the track is a dynamic journey of fast-moving tempos and instrumentation with introspective segments.
