Nap Eyes makes crooked, literate guitar pop refracted through the gray Nova Scotian rain.
Their songs are equal parts shambling and sophisticated, with one eye on the dirt and one trained on the starry firmament, inhabiting a skewed world where odes to NASA, brain protein aggregation, and the Earth’s magnetic field coexist easily with lyrics about insomnia, self-reproach, and drinking too much.
I’m Bad Now, the most transparent and personal Nap Eyes album to date, constitutes the third chapter of an implicit, informal trilogy that includes Whine of the Mystic (2014, reissued in 2015) and Thought Rock Fish Scale (2016), which was nominated for the Polaris Music Prize.
First single ‘Every Time The Feeling’ has been played on RNZ's Nashville Babylon and on 95bFM’s Border Radio. I’m Bad Now is available on limited opaque pink 140g virgin vinyl (JAG318LP-C1).
