Truman of Frat Mouse shares:

“Closure” was written to be a cathartic jammer about getting older and growing apart from some people while simultaneously finding new friends and moving on through life. It’s meant to be a snapshot of life and expression of a feeling too big to hold on to. It’s an impulsive reaction to common youth experience.”

Frat Mouse is a band started in 2019 by two high school seniors that got out of hand. After 3
albums and nearly 4 years of constant music, Frat Mouse is truly the bleeding edge of the West
Coast emo scene. Today, you’ll find Frat Mouse ripping up Los Angeles’ favorite venues and
