Review

"National Eye plays hypnotic pop that's relentless with catchy, cleverly repetitive lines, both instrumental and vocal." - TAPE OP

National Eye's ambitious second album, Roomful of Lions, is a cathedral of color, noise & conversation - fractured human history mixed with fractured human relations. Where their debut was dense, Lions is expansive, providing a grander sonic architecture for the band's songs, which offer a more nuanced and ambiguous moral universe. Subjects range from Marvel comics and a childhood bully to a mutinous Nazi plot to assassinate Hitler. No matter how far out they go, the songs are of a piece and describe a world not too dissimilar from our own, full of passion, death, birds, thieves, love and "men who casino." Some of Philadelphia's greatest musical persons appear on Lions - Dr. Dog's Scott McMicken, Eliza Hardy of the gorgeous Buried Beds, Chicago transplant Janet "Evil Janet" Kim, and two of the geniuses behind Like Moving Insects: Todd Starlin and Joshua Marcus.
