Our Take

NAP EYES' latest offering, Snapshot Of A Beginner, is like a breath of fresh air in a room full of stale cigarette smoke and spilled PBR. This Canadian indie rock band has always marched to the beat of their own drum, and this album is no exception.

Each track on Snapshot Of A Beginner feels like a little slice of musical heaven, with dreamy guitar riffs and introspective lyrics that will make you want to stare wistfully out of a rainy window. Lead singer Nigel Chapman's vocals are reminiscent of a young Bob Dylan, if Bob Dylan had a sense of humour and a penchant for indie rock.

The album kicks off with the catchy single "Mark Zuckerberg," a sarcastic ode to everyone's favourite social media billionaire. With its infectious melody and tongue-in-cheek lyrics, this track sets the tone for the rest of the album.

Tracks like "Mystery Calling" and "So Tired" showcase NAP EYES' ability to craft introspective, yet catchy tunes that will have you tapping your foot and contemplating the meaning of life at the same time. The band's signature lo-fi sound is in full force on songs like "Dark Link" and "Real Thoughts," creating a sense of intimacy that draws you in from the very first note.

Overall, Snapshot Of A Beginner is a must-listen for any fan of indie rock looking for a fresh take on the genre. So grab a glass of your favourite craft beer, put on your headphones, and let NAP EYES take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers to that.

About the artist

Nap Eyes

Ah, NAP EYES. The Canadian indie rock band that's been quietly making waves in the music scene with their laid-back, introspective tunes. Hailing from Halifax, Nova Scotia, this quartet consists of singer-songwriter Nigel Chapman, guitarist Brad Loughead, bassist Josh Salter, and drummer Seamus Dalton. With their fuzzy, lo-fi sound and Chapman's unique vocals, NAP EYES have been compared to everyone from Pavement to The Velvet Underground. But don't be fooled by their slacker vibes - these guys are musicians through and through, with a knack for crafting catchy hooks and poignant lyrics. Their 2015 debut album, Whine of the Mystic, garnered critical acclaim and put them on the map as one of the most exciting up-and-coming bands in indie rock. Since then, they've released two more albums, Thought Rock Fish Scale and I'm Bad Now, further solidifying their reputation as a band to watch. Nigel Chapman's songwriting is a thing of beauty - he weaves clever wordplay with heartfelt reflections on life, love, and everything in between. And with the backing of his talented bandmates, NAP EYES create a sound that is both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. So if you're in the mood for some dreamy, introspective rock music that will transport you to another world, look no further than NAP EYES. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
