July Talk
For Your Bloodshot Eyes
Sleepless Records
July Talkβs 2013 self-titled debut album crackles with energy and seethes with sexuality, largely fuelled by the tension between band leaders Peter Dreimanis and Leah Fay. Since then, in addition to a vigorous touring schedule, the band has released For Your Bloodshot Eyes, an EP containing three additional songs not included on the original Canadian version of July Talk.
The EP kicks off with the bluesy-rock βGentleman,β which sets a slower pace, simmering with lines like βweβre so easy to love when weβre down on our knees.β However, βBlood + Honeyβ and βUninvitedβ offer the riffs and catchy hooks that fans of the band have come to expect, with βBlood + Honeyβ standing out as the most powerful addition to the bandβs repertoire.
For Your Bloodshot Eyes serves two purposes: to continue to showcase the bandβs exceptional talent, and to reaffirm that they are on the cusp of absolutely exploding in popularity. It is a must-hear.
