Following on from the release of their debut single don’t worry last month, snake eyes have announced their debut EP skeletons which is due for released on 9th October 2020 through Failure By Design Records.
The trio have also unleashed wishbone, which is taken from the upcoming EP. Guitarist/vocalist Jim Heffy comments: “Wishbone was a pretty early idea I think. It has that energy of bands I really dig like The Computers or Metz and came to me pretty quick. It’s about people expecting things to happen without actually working for it. I suppose I was saying that things don’t just fall in your lap. If you want something, put the bloody work in!”
The skeletons EP track-listing will be completed with listen, skeletons and bugged out, as well as the two previously released tracks. Speaking about the EP, Heffy comments: “skeletons was basically my first proper shot at songwriting. I didn’t want to overthink or over-write parts. The objective was to make a record that’s fun but honest, written with a “shoot from the hip” attitude. As cliché as it sounds, being our first release I wanted skeletons to really show the bare bones (no pun intended) of the band. We ended up making the record between my bedroom and Thomas’ attic as I wanted the EP to feel as DIY as the songs. It ended up being a pretty fun and personal process. It’s always great playing music but it’s even better when you get to do it with your best mates.”
A trippy music video for wishbone has also been released, check it out below.
