5am is the latest EP from Caution's Nora Button under the guise of Despondent, delivering another heavy blow in her clouded and confessional songwriting. More stripped down, these recordings consist of herself and infrequent drums and percussion by Jaxon Vesely, heightening the intimacy of Button's tales of disconnect and longing.

Despondent is the “solo” project of Caution’s Nora Schlang (aka Nora Button) and Other Girls Too is their debut EP, five songs of somewhat bitter guitar pop full of crunch and disarming melodies. With Despondent, Schlang’s musical approach is a little sharper and less hazy but no less compelling
