West Coast Psychedelic Rock outfit Tombstones In Their Eyes have revealed their new single “In Your Eyes“, the final single from their Asylum Harbour album, out November 19, 2024, via Kitten Robot Records. It’s an album that “pulls past the pain, numbness and chaos reflected on their previous album Sea of Sorrow.“
Based in Los Angeles, Tombstones In Their Eyes is made up of long-time members John Treanor (vocals & guitar), Stephen Striegel (drums), Courtney Davies (vocals) , Phil Cobb (guitar) and Paul Boutin (guitar), along with new band members Joel Wasko (bass) and Clea Cullen (vocals).
Recorded at Kitten Robot Studios in Los Angeles and co-Produced by John Treanor, this album was produced and engineered by Paul Roessler (45 Grave, Twisted Roots, The Screamers, Nina Hagen), also known for his work with Josie Cotton, Hayley and the Crushers and Gitane Demone.
John Treanor explains:
‘In Your Eyes’ is a great example of TITE’s current obsession with vocal harmonies. When I brought the demo to Paul Roessler at Kitten Robot Studio, we listened to the isolated vocal tracks and we were both amazed. I think there were eight tracks of vocals that I had done at home and it sounded like Beach Boys style harmonies and layering. We then proceeded to recreate those in the studio and even add more.
The song also features a diseased sounding lead from guitarist Phil Cobb, which is a great counterpoint to all the prettiness. Lyrically, the song is almost cheerful for us, no doom, depression, fighting against yourself or the world. The verses are all about letting go and giving in to love. The choruses are a pleading for inclusion.
Named after a maritime phrase for a safe place to wait out a storm, Asylum Harbour is an album of “resurfacing, reflecting a new phase of healing after re-emerging from the pandemic.”
In Your Eyes is available exclusively via Bandcamp, where the full Asylum Harbour album can be pre-ordered now. On November 19, 2024, this record will be released on CD, snazzy red vinyl and digitally everywhere, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp.
