It has taken four years for the Cologne, Germany band Dead Man’s Eyes to return with their second studio album, simply titled “III.” Again, it will be released on Tonzonen Records, on August 19, 2022.
Similar to their previous album “Words Of Prey” (2018) and their debut EP “Meet Me In The Desert” (2013), the five-piece band does a balancing act between genres. This time more than ever.
The album title already reveals the band’s intention. Three bundles, each consisting of three songs, are currently being pressed onto the black vinyl of their third release. Each of the bundles stands for a genre that shapes the band’s development. Sometimes it takes lap steel, Blues harp and Jazz brushes, sometimes the throat has to taste of blood for the sound to match the quintet’s vision. The five describe their style in a simple way as “constantly changing, with a permanent home.”
The band has released a first single off of the new album, titled “High On Information.” Purchase and Stream the single on Bandcamp: https://deadmanseyes.bandcamp.com/track/high-on-information-3
The release date of new album “III” is August 19, 2022 and it will be available on vinyl, CD, as well as on all major digital platforms. The artwork was created in collaboration with Spanish artist Azura Daze, who is currently producing one of three music videos for the upcoming album.
