Hailing from Sydney, Grinding Eyes are a dark psych rock trio that shares members with past and present bands such as The Mess Hall, Treatment, The Laurels, The Holy Soul and Kimono Drag Queens.
Their second album, Taste The Monochrome, came together during the quiet of 2020. A uniquely dark-yet-driving experience, Taste The Monochrome is a journey through themes of love, loss, isolation, despair and time travel, set to an ominous soundtrack of psych-rock and shoegaze bound together with luscious atmospherics.
To celebrate the release of the new record, Grinding Eyes have put together a list of the Australian psych-rock songs they’ve been loving lately. As you can see from the list below, this trio like their psych rock to lean on the dark side.
