Jealous Butcher

Eyelids is a Portland, Oregon based band formed by former and current members of Guided By Voices, Stephen Malkmus/The Jicks, The Decemberists, Camper Van Beethoven, and Boston Spaceships. With influences from New Zealand/Flying Nun guitar buzz, teenage L.A. Paisley Underground obsessions, early Athens haunts, and all things beautiful and rock, Eyelids delivers a unique sound that will captivate you.
Get ready to be transported to a world where the love for music takes center stage. Eyelids' music is an amalgamation of various genres and influences that come together to create something truly extraordinary. From their roots in Portland to their connections with renowned bands like Guided By Voices and The Decemberists, Eyelids brings a wealth of experience and talent to the table.
With their deep appreciation for diverse musical styles and their ability to craft lopsided yet captivating melodies, Eyelids offers a refreshing take on rock music. Prepare yourself for an immersive sonic journey as they combine elements of New Zealand/Flying Nun guitar buzz with the nostalgic vibes of L.A.'s Paisley Underground scene.

With Or, the band’s second full-length LP, Eyelids has created their most emotional record yet. Produced by Peter Buck of R.E.M. and mixed by Thom Monahan (Peter, Bjorn and John, Devandra Banhart, Fruit Bats), Or is liberally sprinkled with the hooks, melodies, and charming wordplay that make a certain kind of rock &amp; roll fan fall madly in love with an LP. It’s all evident in the opening song, “Slow It Goes” — is that a play on Vonnegut or Nick Lowe? Somehow both feel appropriate — the kind of classic easily slotted between Superchunk and the Raspberries on a mixtape, locked and loaded with a perfectly winsome expression of angst: “She says, ‘If I can keep from sighing, why can’t you?’” From there, the sequence dives deeper and deeper into Slusarenko and Moen’s love of underground pop: listen to those sparkling “Starry Eyes”-worthy guitars on “Falling Eyes,” the psychedelic swirl of “My Caved In Mind,” and the Dream Syndicate mysticism of “Tell Me You Know.”
