Need 2

"Need 2" is a song by the American indie-rock band Pinegrove released in 2014 as part of the EP Mixtape Two. The palpably moody cut was written by Evan Stephens Hall, the band's lead singer and guitarist.

"Need 2" is a slow, meandering song with a simple melody and lyrics that are both introspective and personal. It's about the creative process and the struggle to find the motivation to write music.

The song opens with a field recording of birds, which creates a sense of calm and tranquility. This is then contrasted with the droning, despondent guitar riff, which creates a sense of tension and anxiety. The lyrics reflect this tension, as Hall sings about the difficulty of finding inspiration and the fear of failure.
