Following the band's recent singles,'We're All Alone,' 'Falling' and 'Get Close,' CRX has released their highly awaited sophomore album 'Peek,' today. Listen HERE.
Drawing on a mutual obsession with everything from Remaining Light by Talking Heads and Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps) by David Bowie, the boys unlocked a new level of chemistry in the studio for this incredible full-length. "We're All Alone" blossoms into a full-scale distorted jam after twisting and turning through a disco-strut and handclap-punctuated bounce. "We wanted to do something hypnotic as f." says Darian. Lyrically, it addresses a pervasive theme of isolation with lines like, "Put down the phone and face it...we're all alone." "We could be right in front of each other and not communicating," Darian elaborates on the lyrics. In "New Obsession." Dusky feedback drenches a danceable bass line and keyboard warbles as Nick's anxious delivery echoes on the hypnotic hook, "Now, I've found my: new obsession." "It's about a fixation that could be on anything," says Jon. "It could be a person or a thing. It doesn't matter. It sounds like anxiety with all of the repetition in terms of the beat and the bass line." Elsewhere, "Falling" amplifies the power of this intense groove, while "Crash" thrives on the inimitable interplay of the band.TRACKLISTING:
