There’s a look about them, one that’s inherently indescribable, a spark of deep intrigue, an unspoken past, a dark and otherworldly energy that both attracts and terrifies. That deep, uneasy emotion is what Hyper Eyes channels in their new experimental single “In Your Eyes”
The track is a dark, atmospheric immersion into a shadowy, introspective realm. It creates an enormous, expansive soundscape from its first note. Dark guitar ambient washes rise and fall in thick swells, sounding rich and heavily textured, giving a feeling of incredible depth and beauty. It’s the aural equivalent of seeing light bend through deep water, a thrilling, mysterious, and profoundly atmospheric experience.
Soft emotional vocals drift effortlessly through the vast gloom. They operate not so much as a narrator leading you through a story, but like a feral wisp, a ghost in the machine of the song’s own heart. The voice is yet another texture of sound, blending perfectly with the guitars to communicate an impure, voiceless emotion that pierces straight through the soul. This is music that feels instead of tells.
“In Your Eyes” is about that mysterious gleam that you cannot resist and that you cannot help but get drunk and dance to. It does not flinch from the darkness, instead, it discovers within it a strange, beautiful luminescence, a sort of dark inner phosphorescence. Hyper Eyes has not written a track so much as a feeling, a mood that can be felt, a gorgeously original piece of experimental art that brings its own shadow to the party every time.
