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 In my book Colin Stetson can do no wrong
