A new track by the name of “Red Eye” from Staticlone (Blacklisted, etc.) received its online premiere this morning. The hardcore punk outfit will have that song out as part of their new album “Better Living Through Static Vision“, which Relapse Records have marked for a March 07th release date.
Vocalist George Hirsch revealed that this track is about, “…a few moments of clarity I had while taking a train across the United States. One was ending my previous band, realizing I was not made to make music with other people. I was to stick to bedroom recordings, and cut out having to pretend to like or be connected to people just because they play an instrument. I’ve since gone back on this realization (let’s see how that goes) with Staticlone. I’ve never romanticized or even understood the American dream of ‘going west.’ I am an East Coast person. It’s convenient, and based in reality. Moving to Chicago was west enough for me, they have Lou Malnati’s and Trouble, why travel any further past that?”
