In Light Of Recent Events

Eddy Current Suppression Ring

$24.98

Eddy Current Suppression Ring make a surprise return with their fifth album In Light of Recent Events. True to form, it finds the disinterested careerists sidestepping expectation and working on their own terms, in their own time. Dialed in through closed-door weekly jams across 2025, that pent-up energy has only leaked via pseudonym-billed small-room shows as Jimmy and the Ringtones and Top Hats, record shop in-stores and country detours, plus a pair of phantom straight-to-YouTube singles ('Swimming Hole' and 'Hard To Be Moved'), each with accompanying films by Chris Middlebrook and Amiel Courtin-Wilson respectively.Modern-day anxiety and human disillusionment press through the album's darker, more politically aware subject matter, as suburban melodramas and tender, hard-hitting reflections articulate everything you've never been able to. Taped within the band's signature close-quarters claustrophobia, Brendan Suppression purges his dome with a newly awakened vocal range, while riff savant Eddy Current bleeds through quicksilver, blood-raw scratches, cut against the tension-wound, locked-in low end of Danny Current and Rob Solid.
