Our Take

Ah, Basement Revolver, the Canadian trio with a name that sounds like a mid-2000s indie film about suburban angst. Their debut album "Heavy Eyes" is a collection of dreamy, shoegaze-infused tracks that capture the feeling of staring out of a rainy window on a gloomy day.

Opening track "Baby" sets the tone with its ethereal vocals and swirling guitars, drawing you in like a siren's call. It's the perfect soundtrack for a rainy day drive or a late-night existential crisis.

The album's standout track, "Johnny", is a slow-burning ballad that builds to a cathartic crescendo, with frontwoman Chrisy Hurn's haunting vocals delivering a gut-wrenching emotional punch. It's the kind of song that will make you want to call your ex at 3 am and confess all your deepest regrets.

But it's not all doom and gloom on "Heavy Eyes". Tracks like "Dancing" and "Friends" inject a dose of energy and optimism into the mix, proving that Basement Revolver is more than just a one-trick pony.

Overall, "Heavy Eyes" is a solid debut from a band with plenty of potential. It may not reinvent the wheel, but it's a promising start from a group that's worth keeping an eye on. So grab your headphones, put on your best melancholy face, and give Basement Revolver a spin. Who knows, it might just be the soundtrack to your next rainy day revelation.
