Water From Your Eyes have announced a new album, Everyone’s Crushed, the duo’s first since signing with Matador. It’s scheduled for release on May 26. Today, they’ve shared the lead single ‘Barley’, alongside a video directed by the band’s Rachel Brown. Check it out and find the LP’s cover art, tracklist, and Water from Your Eyes’ upcoming tour dates below.
“’Barley’ is a rhythmic sound collage experiment drawing from modern classical, classic rock, and dance music,” the band explained in a statement. “The lyrics suggest repeated futile attempts at attaining the unattainable and allude to Sting and Sonic Youth. The video mirrors these concepts in scope, texture, and variety – juxtaposing feelings of entrapment and late stage capitalism against the sense of freedom inherent to the vast American landscape. Despite all this heady bullshit the song is, at its core, fun.”
Everyone’s Crushed will follow the band’s 2021 record Structure. Late last year, Brown released the solo collection You Haven’t Missed Much under the moniker thanks for coming. More recently, the pair shared a remix of Winter’s ‘good’.
