‘Life Indicators’ comes paired with a music video directed by the band’s personal Rachel Brown, who commented: “Tv has all the time been my largest ardour, and this video was principally conceived from my need to experiment with the tropes of style. However I additionally assume the medium lends itself to the concept of becoming an infinite quantity of universes into just a little field you possibly can maintain in your front room. I needed the video to encapsulate as many worlds because the track does and to specific a whole lifetime inside a brief jiffy.”
Water From Your Eyes’ follow-up to 2023’s Everybody’s Crushed is billed as “a reframing of the y2k songbook,” with Nate Amos elaborating, “It ended up being about time, dinosaurs and house. We needed to current a variety of kinds in a approach that acknowledges every thing’s only a tiny blip.”
“A track can really feel like every thing, speaking huge emotional landscapes, however your favourite album is much less vital than any particular person,” Amos added. “That particular person is much less fascinating than any dinosaur. That dinosaur is much less vital than any mountain. That mountain is boring in comparison with any planet. That planet is just part of a photo voltaic system. That photo voltaic system is microscopic subsequent to any galaxy. If music and all different human practices are meaningless on a cosmic scale why does it nonetheless really feel so vital?”
Stay, Brown and Amos are joined by guitarist Al Nardo and drummer Bailey Wollowitz (of fantasy of a damaged coronary heart), and that dynamic helped form the brand new document. “If you’re taking part in with a band you have a tendency to jot down with one in thoughts – this was the primary time I wrote something for WFYE imagining us taking part in anyplace greater than a basement,” Amos famous.
