Glass Eye Post “X-Y” Single; Announce Debut EP & Album

Okay, so here’s what’s up. There’s a lot going on in this announcement, which I actually put together from two separate announcements. Los Angeles’ Glass Eye is a newcomer psychedelic project headed by guitarist/vocalist Febian Perez. There’s a new single called “X-Y” out now that you can stream below. It comes from Glass Eye‘s debut album, Like a Razor to the Eye, which is being released later this year.

Separate from that, Glass Eye will issue their first EP, Somewhere, Nowhere, on June 25, and I’m pretty sure “X-Y” isn’t on that at all, though I could be wrong. Either way, one assumes the lead single is a fair sampling of Glass Eye‘s wares, and the melted-down shuffle it elicits is suitably moving for a band/project that seems to have come together with a strong idea of sonic intent.

Info follows, as per the PR wire:

Los Angeles based Glass Eye is excited to premiere their transcendent debut EP.

Glass Eye have completed work on their newest single ‘X=Y’ in anticipation of a late 2020 release of their LP ‘Like A Razor To The Eye’. Glass Eye sounds as though they were a great lost garage-psych treasure from the 90s, blended into the modern age with poignant lyricism and unique composition.

‘X-Y’ is one of the album’s tracks, recorded over the course of a year at Bedrock in LA, his home studio and finally mixed by Erik Wofford at Cacophony Recorders in Austin, of Black Angels and Explosions in the Sky fame. The song takes the listener on a pounding and frenetic journey through a madness dreamed up in darkness.

Glass Eye have completed work on their newest EP ‘Somewhere, Nowhere’ in anticipation of a June 25th, 2020 release. The EP showcases all of the darker and fluid intricacies of Glass Eye’s complex songwriting.

Originally from New York City; Glass Eye was founded by Febian Perez in 2019 after many years of touring, recording and performing in various projects. In early 2020, he took the leap and dove head first into finishing a series of albums that he began work on in the year prior. Taking it into his own hands, he composed and performed all the instruments on ‘Somewhere, Nowhere’. With tonal influences ranging from driving dance grooves and lush soundscapes to dissonant explosions and hallucinatory treks into madness…This EP is sure to sink its hook deep inside.

The EP was recorded and mixed over the course of a year and a half, at his home studio by Febian Perez.
