Lazyeyes

After having heard the song “Forever” by Brooklyn outfit Lazyeyes earlier that day, I venture the guess that they’re gonna get bigger pretty soon. They’ve already caused a first stir after playing the last edition of CMJ and have constantantly won round more fans since then. Their sound, a dreamy attempt on lo-fi rock, is a perfect attunement for the coming summer.

You can buy their first 4-song EP on their bandcamp page. Check the video for “Wait” below, too, which is another highly promising cut from the EP.

mp3 | WIDOWSPEAK • ballad of the golden hour

Captured Tracks is definitely my favorite record label these days. Especially this year, with releases by DIIV, Wild Nothing or Mac DeMarco. (Just to name a few) Now a first song from a new Widowspeak album has seen the light of day. As the Brooklyn band announced today, “Ballad Of The Golden Hour” is a first cut from Almanac, out January 22 via Captured Track. It’s a slow-building indie-folk tune, that might just make your evening.

mp3 | EVIL EYES • keep your mind on me

We discovered San Francisco’s own Evil Eyes back in March and made their sunny lo-fi gems “Saw Her In The Sun” and “Burying Our Love” part of our playlists. In the meantime the duo has expanded to a five-piece band and is prepping its debut album, which should be out early next year. First sign of this record is “Keep Your Mind On Me” , a twangy indie rock song that arrives just right for the upcoming winter.
