"Merchants"

When indie rock group Nationality began planning their second studio album, it's not hard to believe they didn't know where to go. Their debut album, "Nebula", was made up of various demos from over the years all put together. Each song was somewhat unfinished and had a rough, almost lo-fi energy to them. Eventually, they started crafting rough demos and layering tracks on top of them. Quickly, "Merchants" began to take shape. "Merchants" is the polar opposite of their debut. Made up of nine beautifully crafted studio-made tracks, it's home to the group's best compositions yet.
