Eyes & No Eyes is a new progressive band, the members of whom met at art school in Brighton where they developed a shared passion for explosive noise, surreal lyrics, driving motorik beats and free improvisation – whilst never forgetting to keep a solid song foundation. They recently unveiled a track from their self-titled debut album which you can listen to below:
This is progressive brilliance that is brimming with an energy and tension that comes from walking that fine balance between noise and pop with a nod to the likes of Sonic Youth. In addition to guitar, bass, drums and cello played by their four core members the addition of analog synths and warped electronics from the incredibly talented Gemma of Woodpecker Wooliams. These are without doubt a hot tip for 2014.
The album is set for release on 31 March 2014 but they have been busy racking up tours and shows around the UK and Europe and are currently supporting Peggy Sue on a number of tour dates.
