The 2017 EP "The Hold" finds ESA delivering a short, brutal dose of their signature sound. It serves as a bridge between their earlier, more electro-focused work and their later, heavier material.
- "The Hold" was released on February 4, 2017, by Negative Gain Productions. The EP features guest vocals from Gost on the track "Host". The release sits squarely within ESA's prolific discography, offering a taste of their intense electronic sound.
- The four-track EP runs just under 20 minutes, with each song delivering a concentrated blast of the artist's sound. The title track, "The Hold," features a driving beat and distorted synths characteristic of ESA's style. Gost, another artist on the Negative Gain Productions label, lends his unique vocal style to the track "Host".
- The EP was released in 2017, a period of high activity for ESA, following the 2016 album "The Beginning or the End". This release helped maintain momentum leading into subsequent EPs and albums.
ESA is the electronic music project of Los Angeles-based artist JRobb. They are known for a style that blends industrial, metal, and EBM influences.
