Cindy Lee – What’s Tonight To Eternity [Review]

Tags

2020, Album, Album Review, alternative, artist, Canada, Cindy Lee, Experimental, Music, Musician, Patrick Flegel, pop, Review, singer, Single, Toronto, What's Tonight To Eternity

Was going to post this on Valentine’s Day but I got so sidetrack.
All I have to say that this record by Cindy Lee is one of the best for 2020!
What’s Tonight To Eternity is simply beautiful and haunting at the same time.
Mixing in lo-fi guitar to the tragic wispy vocals of Pat.
It is one of those albums for getting dumped or trying to get over someone!

Cindy Lee – I Want You To Suffer/Heavy Metal [Listen]

Tags

2020, alternative, artist, Canada, Cindy Lee, Experimental, Heavy Metal, I Want You To Suffer, Music, Musician, Patrick Flegel, pop, Review, singer, Single, Toronto

I Want You To Suffer is probably the second single while Heavy Metal is the first single from Cindy Lee‘s album called What’s Tonight To Eternity
That is dropping on February 14, 2020 (Valentine’s Day) via Superior Viaduct‘s imprint W.25TH
It is a beautiful and haunting mix of lo-fi experimental music reminiscent of old pop days from the 50s/60s.
