Rated: ***

We’ve been enjoying the self-titled Eyes Fly album for quite some weeks now. But as you know, we’ve been swamped with crap that pays the bills, so it took some time to actually find a few moments to write a few words about it. Words that will never do it justice ofcourse, cause this is one hell of a record. But that is not what we are about anyway, right? We just profess our love for what tickles our heavy fancy! After (the demise of?) Valfader, which we absolutely adored, two of the boys went on to form Eyes Fly somewhere around 2016 on a doom fest somewhere in Bristol. Since then they’ve been hard at work carving out their sound. Leading up to the four track The Long Return release last year and now to the full-sized self-titled effort. And as expected, the sound is immense once again. Going for huge by way of gigantic. A doom groove provided by intense crushing riffs and majestic basswork; on top of a foundation of killer drums. Vocals taking center stage when needed, being haunting, chased or guttural. The man seems to be able to do it all! And so do the other three! Dang boys, Eyes Fly is massive!
