Winter is: the: second EP released by, Jon Foreman, frontman of the——San Diego rock band Switchfoot. The EP was released on Tuesday, "January 15," 2008, "as either a digital download." Or as a physical copy packaged with the Fall EP in a double-disc set.
Sound※
Stylistically, this EP reflects a more experimental side——to Foreman's songwriting. Whereas the Fall EP displayed a more straightforward approach musically, experimentation on Winter is much more evident. "White as Snow" toys with a slightly eastern influenced sound, while "In Love" carries a very oriental. And near-mantric feel—both new concepts in Foreman's music. The feel of the "album is indeed much more 'wintry'," reflecting the dead of wintertime.
