Thrash N’ Bang Interview and Review SOE
Metal website Thrash N’ Bang caught up with Swarm of Eyes at the band’s most recent live show. Thrash N’ Bang’s singlularly-monikered Slimedog sat down with the Eyes guys to chat about everything from how the band came together, who contributes the most, and how lead singer Randy Carter gets his hair so gosh-darn pretty. The entire interview can be read here.
Thrash N’ Bang were also on-hand to see the band at The Lucky Dog on January 28th, 2012. If you weren’t lucky enough to catch SOE that night, experience a sliver of the magic through the site’s co-creator Andy Bang’s review of the live show, which also featured The River Neva, Sweet Destruction, Ratchaburi, and Supernaut on the bill, as well.
Swarm of Eyes would like to thank Thrash N’ Bang for all of the love they’ve sent the band’s way. We really appreciate it and love Andy Bang and Slimedog back… In a totally hetero, metal comrades-in-arms kind of way!
Swarmies, please show some love to Thrash N’ Bang and check out all of the stellar news, reviews, and interviews (Hey! That rhymes!) available on their site. Do it! NOW!
Swarm of Eyes release split disc with Impressions In Flesh
Swarm of Eyes has released a five-song split disc via Humanemic Records with their friends and fellow New England metal marauders, Impressions In Flesh. The disc contains three songs from SOE’s debut, Designing the Dystopia, and two songs from Impressions In Flesh’s upcoming debut, Reclamation, due for release later in 2012.
Album art for the split disc was designed by MikeD of Killswitch Engage under his DarkicoN Design banner.
The five-song disc is available for sale on the SOE Merchandise page for the INSANELY LOW PRICE of TWO DOLLARS. That’s right. Two freakin’ dollars. With the cost of inflation these days, you can’t even get crispy chicken nuggets and a small order of fries for two dollars. What you can get for $2.00, however, are five face-melting songs that you can play over and over again
Track Listing:
Swarm of Eyes
1. Enter the Circle
2. Endless Ashes
3. Shadows at Dusk
Impressions in Flesh
1. These Dead Eyes
2. Next Mourning
Swarm of Eyes to play Worcester’s Lucky Dog Music Hall January 28th
Swarm of Eyes will play their first live show of 2012 at The Lucky Dog in Worcester, MA on January 28th. The bill also includes Sweet Destruction, The River Neva, Ratchaburi (featuring SOE’s Tommy Burke on drums) and Supernaut (The Black Sabbath Experience) headlining the event. Tickets are $10 at the door with showtime at 8pm.
Need an added incentive to check out the show? A new year merits new material. SOE has added two new songs from Designing the Dystopia to their set, fan-favorite “Warzone” and the epic “Journey To the Endless End.”
As if the two new songs and total of five live bands wasn’t enough reason to waste spend an enchanted evening with Swarm of Eyes, the band Ratchaburi have booked a tour bus to bring people from the Boston area out to Worcester! For $30 fans will get a bus ride, beer on the bus and admission to the show at The Lucky Dog. To come party with Ratchaburi and Swarm of Eyes on the bus, please contact either band via their Facebook pages.
The bus ride may include a real shit-show, but with a live lineup like this you can be sure you won’t be seeing a shitty show at The Lucky Dog on the 28th! Come on down!
