Debut album from EX EYE, the instrumental, post-everything quartet led by renowned saxophonist Colin Stetson and featuring the otherworldly drumming of Greg Fox. EX EYE seamlessly weave between precise, clockwork intricacy and aggressive, ecstatic abandon while taking the listener on a cathartic, thrilling journey to total transcendence. Recorded live at EX EYE member Shahzad Ismaily's Figure 8 Studios in Brooklyn, NY (Blonde Redhead, Damien Rice, Okkervil River, Son Lux, Pussy Riot), the self-titled debut showcases a band that is without question the sum of its parts, as each player contributes not only their own particular technical prowess and expertise but also their signature compositional character. EX EYE make incredibly complex yet beautifully dramatic and emotive music which eclipses usual expectation of style or genre and is sure to be talked about for many years to come.
Outstanding in all ways
It's a shame this doesn't have more listens. This is monumental.
A truly needed breath of fresh air. Amazing song. Thank you, Ex Eye.
The question I ask all bass saxophonists: where the hell do you get one? I've never even seen any antique ones sold, and I think there's only 1 guy who makes them in the entire world at the moment.
I got mine out of an old archive cabinet
Luck and a lot of money. They show up at sax shops occasionally, sometimes you can convince them to let you rent but that’s rare. I found mine doing that
Ex-Eye is awesome. You may like the Zu album called Carbon.
Indeed. Thank you for the suggestion!
Colin with his best MC Ride impression.
This is GLORIOUS.
Wow, so good it cought me by surprise. Love this.
A little wikipedia reading and I've just realizied I was following Colin Stetson's stuff about five years ago and that this is him on brass. Sweet. Forgot about him along the way. Good stuff!
excellent use of 4:9 polymeter, great build and amazing track. i'm gonna be spinning this record so much when it drops.
4:9 Polymeter?
This is awesome workout music. Studies have shown you can lift literally thousands of pounds to this song.
Good thing you said "literally". I 'd hate for anyone to think you were speaking rhetorically. Or hyperbolically. Or ironically. Thank you for making that distinction.
First song of these guys I have checked out... My impression is positive, definitely have more to listen to.
Not everyday NPR comes through with a solid music recommendation, but here we are...
Massive tune!!!
unique and fresh!
I enjoyed that quite thoroughly
1 minute in and it's already got my like.
Amazing! no joke i always wanted to hear what horns sounded like with Isis or Red Sparrows!
I miss ISIS. Have you listened to SUMAC? Turner's new gig.
Check out the band Zu. Album Carboniferous
Incredible band. Get the vinyl.
Sounds like Moon Hooch and Red Fang had a hell of a time nine months ago
Jess Randyss Shining (Nor) filmed it all and it's on Pornhub
So far it sounds promising! Wow, released back in June? Crazy how some of these albums go under my radar, nevertheless, Cheers!
Stonersax! Incredible riffing!
One of the best album of 2017 ! sooooooo fresh :o)
Great show in Portland, ME @ Space gallery!
Anyone who doesn't like this is not serious about heavy music becoming more than just heavy for the sake of heavy!
Copper died?
I fucking love this project.
Holy fuck this is intense!
Reminds me of liturgy with sax. amazing
great stuff, kind of reminds me if you where to mix seven that spells with lightning bolt.
nah... more like Shining(Norway) with hints of Elephant9
Interesting sound
Merci le Roadburn !
great!
This is weird as fuck, but I'm kinda digging it. Reminds me of a less-insane Brain Tentacles.
Great! Reminds me of 35007…
FUCKING awesome boys!
greg fox rulezz...he's the drummer...in case people dont know...love his style
Love it! Who would have thought incorporating a saxophone into metal would work? Good stuff.
You should check out Shining (norway) then ;)
Mark Wallace and Sigh from Japan.
And Blindead.
Check out Zu(with Mike Patton). I myself have always fuckin loved it, when they use sax in heavier genres. I love the squealing sax!!
First heard it on Ihsahn's 'After' release from 2010. Great album!
W👍wow
Qué puta maravilla.
🤘
O yea, that's a buy
Sounds like NIN's The Fragile Remix. Maybe "La Mer"
Soooo Fucking Badass
FUCK + YES!!
Anyone who has not heard this album, go do yourself a favor.
Lyrics?
@maryannehobbs played this and well it's feckin' epic..
what kind of saxophone is that?
this is baritone saxophone
RedHotAmarth ohh thanks!
Yo guys, It's a bass saxophone, slightly bigger than a baritone :)
man this is great but I'm really bothered that Liturgy gets so much hate/so little credit when this is so clearly indebted to it. obv Greg Fox drums for both projects which probably partly has to do with it, but beyond rhythmically this is super similar to songs like Generation wrt melody and shit. friggin heck bud
Clearly, it's the pace of Greg Fox !
I give Relapse credit for standing behind bands they personally dig because there is a very small market for something like this. I don't know how they can make a profit on stuff like this but they consistently do it. Props but I'm not interested.
Same.
Honestly more of these kinds of cross groups are what we desperately need to create novelty, more of the same old nostalgia maybe what bores me. This music feels alive, like spring and summer, unlike fall and winter, it has an energy to it that exudes quality and life.
So the opposite of metal? That's why I maintain it's a bold move for a metal label to consistently release this type of material. Good on them for doing what they want. Good on you for enjoying it.
For the record, the LP is completely sold-out already. Wish I had heard about it sooner.
Shows what I know. Again, props to Relapse but I don't get it.
Reminds me of Kling Klang
which genre they're playing
progressive black ska metal. Lmao
saxy prog music
instrumental post-everything rock
labels meh
who cares ?
wow. you can hear how much liturgy is mainly greg's influence.
Yup.
When ska goes too far.
wtf.
Nah bruh check Peste Noire's "L'ordure à l'état pure" for that
Mørkskogg ahahahaha
Ska is shit for autists
I like the concept of this band and I like a lot of passages from the songs but I'm missing growls here
Seems like more people are seeing this vid than the pre-release track so I'll leave my comment here in the hopes that with more eyes on it, SOMEBODY might do me the favor of copying and pasting into their facebook for me since I REFUSE to contact the band through, seemingly, their only method('cause I hate FB and think it's bullcrap ultimately). Anyway, saw the band tonight in Portland at the esteemed Mississippi Studios (the perfect venue really...) and have to say, while they are thrilling and an absolute joy to behold - see them! And, as individuals, they're probably each solid dudes you'd want to have a beer with and talk about music, their band, any band, anything or perhaps nothing at all better yet... just drink, ....AS a band, they're kinda a bunch of dicks. Not only barely acknowledging their audience, or introducing themselves, or where they're from or even anything(and not that that in and of itself is requisite of any band per se), they had the gall to neglect saying ANYTHING about their great warm up act, 1939 Ensemble! Not even a nod. Nothing. The fucking nerve. You arrogant douches... and especially after the incredibly profound plug they threw your way. Now that was classy. You guys however hit the stage and immediately begin to masturbate while sorta giving the impression that we are in fact SUPER LUCKY to be able to watch you masturbate.... I don't know. Little more humility from you guys. Don't get me wrong... LOVED the show. Couldn't stop smiling while you were playing. Really. Ask my wife who commented, 'what are you fucking grinning at!?" Great show. It was thrilling and energizing. But say THANK YOU to and acknowledge your fuckin' warm up!!! You dicks.
Do you have some personal financial interest in the opening act cause I've seen many great shows where the headliner didn't acknowledge the opening act but it wasn't a dis in anyway! The headliner isn't held responsible to acknowledge the opener in any way and unless you're invested I don't see the problem at all! As a matter of fact they did acknowledge the opener when they let them share the bill so your comment makes absolutely no sense!
You need 2 get out more
theyre just more cvlt than cat. besides all the drunk jazz moms left after 1939's set once they figured out they were getting a metal show. real sweet dudes talking to the after their set imo.
meh
I'm bored.
👽👾🚀I rather watch THIN🍀LIZZY & BLACK😈SABBATH in concert!\♍/
