h3nce’s debut EP, WRITE IT ON YOUR FLAGS, is a six-track project shaped by urgency, restraint, and a clear sense of purpose. Produced by Leon Laguna and recorded in h3nce’s attic studio, the record blends indie rock, post-punk, shoegaze, and grunge. The sound is raw but intentional, built from jagged guitars, heavy drums, and vocals that carry emotional weight without leaning into excess.
The EP moves through themes of isolation, loss, and shared resilience, but also a steady push toward connection. The title and artwork center on a white flag, not as a symbol of defeat but as a gesture of unity. That idea runs through the record without being overstated. The songs hold space for confusion and grief, but they also suggest that meaning can be built together, even in chaos.
Tracks like “TALK BOY,” “LAST PLACE,” and “2MUCH ON MY MIND” have already gained traction online, setting the tone for the full release. They carry a restless energy, but the structure is tight. The production avoids unnecessary polish in favor of a DIY edge.
h3nce’s rise has been steady and self-directed. With over 7 million streams and over 253K monthly listeners, his audience has grown through consistent releases and a strong sense of community. His Discord server is active and personal, filled with fans who contribute art, share thoughts, and stay connected. That kind of engagement reflects how his music comes together, shaped by a close-knit and collaborative process built with care.
Live shows have followed the same pattern. His headline debut in Berlin drew a packed room, with fans arriving early and staying engaged throughout. He’s now on his first European tour, joined by drummer Noah Anderson. After the headline run, they’ll support ThxSoMch across five more dates, bringing the EP to new cities and new listeners.
