TROPHY EYES – Suicide and Sunshine – LP – Vinyl

LP – Standard Edition Black Vinyl.

Just like the title Suicide and Sunshine, Trophy Eyes fourth album is about contrast. About light and dark. About beauty and tragedy. About the full spectrum of life, as told through the eyes of frontman John Floreani. Its the human experience, says Floreani. What we experience and how we navigate it. The millions of tiny flashes of light that are memories and thoughts and feelings and smells, all those little moments make up a lifetime. Theyre beautifully tragic because they dont mean anything to anyone, and on the scale of everything in the universe dont mean a damn thing. But its so beautiful that they happen in the first place.

Floreanis willingness to dive so deeply into the most personal parts of his life is matched by the bands desire to explore the very boundaries of the hardcore genre. Alongside Floreanis impassioned vocals, drummer Blake Carusos insistent rhythms, Jeremy Winchesters unflinching bass and the powerful guitars handled by Floreani, producer Shane Edwards and former guitarist Andrew Hallett the album is rich with anthemic hooks, dark modern pop (My Inheritance), electronic flourishes courtesy of co-producer Fletcher Matthews, and atmospheric, swirling synths (Runaway Come Home and Sydney).

“When we did Chemical Miracle, our second full length, the logo for the album was a palm tree and a noose. Thats literally suicide and sunshine. Its always been there on my mind. And I think I finally just phonetically set it out. That encompasses everything Ive been trying to do my entire career.
