bit depth

bit depth is a Toronto trio that treats DIY indie rock as an emotional register rather than an aesthetic choice, recording from home setups and letting the tape hiss stay in the mix. Songwriter Arps carries the guitar and vocal lines, often layering in trumpet, while bassist Aglet and drummer Marlow round out arrangements that pull as easily from chamber pop as from slowcore drift. Records like "bit depth 64," "Herdbound," and the 2026 single "venison" trade in diary-specific lyrics rather than generic heartbreak, the kind of detail that makes a song about hooves or a broken pedalboard land as sincere. The band has built a devoted following within the furry music scene, playing fan-run gatherings like Frotters Day and FURFAGFEST and releasing through the trickyStoop label alongside a small circle of similarly unpolished, similarly earnest peers.
