Our Take

Bright Eyes have returned with their first album in nearly a decade, and oh boy, it was worth the wait. "Down In The Weeds, Where The World Once Was" is a sprawling, emotional journey through love, loss, and everything in between.

Conor Oberst's poignant lyrics and haunting vocals are front and centre, taking listeners on a rollercoaster of emotions from start to finish. The production on this album is top-notch, with lush instrumentation and intricate arrangements that create a dreamy, atmospheric soundscape.

Tracks like “Mariana Trench” and “Persona Non Grata” showcase Bright Eyes at their best, with cathartic choruses that will have you singing along at the top of your lungs. The band's signature folk-inflected indie rock sound is present throughout, but there are also some surprising sonic twists and turns that keep things fresh and exciting.

Whether you're a devoted fan or a newcomer to Bright Eyes' music, "Down In The Weeds, Where The World Once Was" is a must-listen. It's an album that will make you laugh, cry, and everything in between - sometimes all at once. So grab a cup of tea, settle in, and let Bright Eyes take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers!

About the artist

Bright Eyes

Conor Oberst, the enigmatic frontman of Bright Eyes, is a true indie rock icon whose raw emotion and poetic lyricism have captivated audiences for over two decades. With his trembling vocals and introspective songwriting, Oberst has cemented his place as one of the most influential voices in alternative music. But Bright Eyes is not just about Oberst. The band's dynamic sound is a result of the collaboration between Conor and his talented bandmates, Mike Mogis and Nate Walcott. Mogis's intricate production and Walcott's lush arrangements add depth and complexity to Bright Eyes' music, creating a sonic landscape that is both haunting and beautiful. Since their debut album, "Letting Off the Happiness," in 1998, Bright Eyes has consistently pushed the boundaries of indie rock, experimenting with different genres and styles while maintaining their signature sound. From the folk-inspired melodies of "I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning" to the electronic beats of "Digital Ash in a Digital Urn," Bright Eyes has never been afraid to take risks and challenge the status quo. With a discography that spans nine studio albums and countless EPs and singles, Bright Eyes has earned a dedicated fanbase that spans generations. Their music has been described as cathartic, introspective, and at times, downright heartbreaking. But above all, Bright Eyes is a band that reminds us of the power of music to connect us, to heal us, and to make us feel less alone in a world that can often feel overwhelming. So whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer to the world of Bright Eyes, one thing is certain: Conor Oberst and his bandmates will continue to enchant and inspire us with their music for years to come. Long live Bright Eyes.
