Winter Drones - Heavy Eyes

Review by Josh Suntharasivam

An album that’s often as evocative as anything released this year.»

Buy now from:

Heavy Eyes is the second outing of Leon Dufficy's insomniac pscyh group Winter Drones. Perhaps better known as the guitarist in Sub Pop's dream pop outfit Still Corners and Ecstatic Peace's hippie-jam outfit Hush Arbors - fronted by Keith Wood (Chelsea Light Moving) who also features on 'Heavy Eyes' - Dufficy once again enlists the help of trusted music companions Alannah Ashworth and Luke Jarvis to create a release of half awake guitar lines combined with fuzzed-out ambient drift, shoegaze swirl and propulsive pop sensibilities - all recorded in an insomniac haze that Dufficy has been living with since childhood.
