Big Eyes Drop Electrifying New Album STREETS OF THE LOST Out Today
By: Tori Hartshorn
It's 2019 and the words 'rock' and 'female-led' have rejoined the conversation with Big Eyes' new album, Streets of the Lost out now via Ghettoblaster. As an album chasing, "Classic power pop songwriting with hard rock dual leads and a punk edge," Big Eyes succeed in delivering more than just the traditional two-minute angry blast of sound. From tackling the tragedy of suicide on "The Upside" to laughing in the face of adolescence on "Young, Dumb and Bored," the band presents a fully-formed idea of unrelenting guitars and percussion that anyone could find meaning in. The addition of tastefully electrifying vocals only contributes to the overall humility and humanity of the album.
As a band with ten years of experience, Big Eyes have explored nearly all corners of guitar-based music. Landing on a signature fusion of hard rock and punk, they pair the immensity of their instrumentals with introspective lyricism pertaining to shifting residences between New York and the Pacific Northwest. Unafraid to offer their own interpretation of current events and ideologies, any nuance of sound or word is a direct reflection of the authenticity of Paul Ridenour (guitar/back-up vocals), Jeff Ridenour (bass), Scott McPherson (drums), and Kait Eldridge (vocals, guitar).Thu Apr 04 - Atlanta, GA @ 529 Bar
