"There’s a satisfying heaviness that’s particularly alluring" ~ FLOOD Magazine
"A captivating blend of thoughtful introspection and expansive soundscapes... One of the coolest bands to have emerged on the American psychedelic rock scene in the past decade, they rise to the bar of such bands as BJM" ~ XS Noize
"Mesmerizingly brooding and fuzzed-out ‘n’ fiery" ~ The Big Takeover
"The band creates a psychedelic opus from one track to the next, year after year and this alone is no easy feat" ~ Ghettoblaster Magazine
"Tune in, zone out and enjoy the ride" ~ Loudwire
American psych-gaze outfit Tombstones In Their Eyes present the visuals for their new single 'I Like to Feel Good'. The video itself, oscillating between electrified stage performances and scenes from a chilled drive through LA, seemingly reflects the transformation inherent in this song's lyrics, expressing how one's inner strength and individuality can be a catalyst for positive change.
Espousing a heavier sound than the two earlier-released singles from this album - 'Sweet as Pie' and 'I'm Not Like That' - 'I Like To Feel Good foreshadows the band's 'Asylum Harbour' album, out on November 19 via Kitten Robot Records, which sees TITE mainman pull 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).
"'I Like to Feel Good' has probably my favorite verse of any song that I’ve written. It’s the second long verse and it was written in a stream of consciousness fashion. I don’t believe that I changed any of the words that came out in that first pass. And it really hit home. It summed up my existence, thinking that my sensitivity was a burden and a malady, only to find that it is a gift that I can use to make life better," says John Treanor.
"Beyond that verse, it also has a really cool wah part leading from the main verse to the last chorus. The part only lasts thirty seconds or less but it came out so good. And I love the overall vibe and sound of the song, it sounds super fuzzy and driving (in the verses especially)."
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.
Tombstones In Their Eyes began a decade ago as a demo-swapping exercise between two childhood friends separated by geography (John Treanor in LA and James Cooper in NYC), but soon blossomed into a full-fledged band and a healthy stream of expansive music that is laced with fuzzed out psychedelic majesty.
For John, writing and performing has always been a way to deal with anxiety and depression, to speak about a subject without being the centre of the conversation, and to express oneself in a subliminal way rather than directly. This music looks out into the universe as much as it looks inward toward the soul.
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. Treanor shares, "The album has been ready for some time, so it’s a relief to get it out.... Now we get to go out and play the songs from the new record live."
'I Like to Feel Good' is out now, available everywhere online, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp. The full 'Asylum Harbour' album, available November 18 on snazzy red vinyl, CD and digitally, can be pre-ordered directly from Kitten Robot Records or via Bandcamp.
