Bleary Eyed are a shoegaze band from Philadelphia, and so they positive do sound prefer it. On a brand new self-titled EP launched in the present day, the group places a barely poppier spin on the experimental dream-pop of acts like Knifeplay, TAGABOW, and Spirit Of The Beehive. Alex G’s tweaked melodious imaginative and prescient looms giant, as does, properly, your complete historical past of the subgenre. That is an ain’t-broke-don’t-fix-it scenario, an professional spinning of a wheel that doesn’t have to be reinvented. Name that damning with faint reward if you would like, however from the intricately layered vocals of opener “Run” to the racing distortion of “Tree,” these things is satisfying my shoegaze urge in the present day. Pay attention under.
Bleary Eyed is out now on Born Losers.
