Very excited about this and can’t believe this will be their upcoming fourth album in the span of 6-7 years! Nap Eyes will release their new album, Snapshot of a Beginner which will be their most concentrated and hi-fi effort to date.
Dropping on March 27, 2020 via Royal Mountain Records (say what!?) / Jagjaguwar (Yay) , in partnership with Paradise of Bachelors (Huh?).
The lead single/music video is Mark Zuckerburg which I find is their most uplifting cohesive really-not-really stoner rock track!
Having premiered the track yesterday on CHUO 89.1 FM.
Barrie, Ontario’s The Noolands premiered the music video for Too Close.
Having released their song Grenadine in 2019 that was very folk-rock.
2020 looks like the band is taking some risk in changing up their style of music with Too Close.
More of a synth-rock vibe to give them more a broader appeal.
Check out the music video.

Third Man Records, as a record label that makes a specialty of 7″ pressings and live recordings from its famous Blue Room in Nashville, TN, is excited to release Broken Social Scene: Live At Third Man Records
Third Man Records had the pleasure of hosting the inimitable Broken Social Scene, carefully absorbing and recording their magnetic and unforgettable live set on the Blue Room stage. Epic, panoramic, and intimate all at the same time, the legendary Toronto collective Broken Social Scene began as an ebbing and flowing collective of artists in the late 90s, collaborating to create a distinct strand of indie rock that is both perplexingly maximal and straight-up catchy.
The band kicked off the set with emotive fan favorite “Cause = Time”, then transitioning into “Stay Happy,” the lead track from 2017’s Hug of Thunder, in all it’s hypnotic, horn-driven grandeur.
Then, on the flip side, the album’s 2-song B-side wraps with the slow-build anthem “It’s All Gonna Break,” a song once described as “Bob Seger on acid.” Really, how else would you want a show to close?
Their live set was captured, mixed and mastered in real time via the world’s only live venue and direct-to-acetate lathe cutting studio. With the release of this live album, Third Man is very excited to invite all to be a part of this special experience, Broken Social Scene’s first commercially available live album, in the only venue in the world where performance, art and tactile transcription methodologies converge.
Finally news comes out about this great rocking band from Montreal.
