Leapling’s debut full-length, Vacant Page, has been a long time in the making. The Brooklyn-based band holds close to what could be considered “legendary” status in the borough: Three of the four members founded and ran the beloved local DIY all-ages concert space Big Snow Buffalo Lodge until it closed down in 2013 after a shooting took place right outside and seriously injured drummer Yoni David. David, Dan Arnes, R.J Gordon, Joey Postiglioneare are practically household names, guys who champion the local scene as well as they fit into it. Vacant Page follows up Leapling’s 2013 EP, Losing Face, and it’s an instrumentally adept though wholly unpretentious collection of tracks. We’ve already heard three singles — “Crooked,” “Silent Stone,” and “N.E.R.V.E.” — and now you can stream the entire album below.
