New music today from Carey Mercer’s (Swan Lake, Blackout Beach) Frog Eyes project. Dead Oceans (on a roll lately) will be releasing the band’s upcoming Paul’s Tomb: A Triumph, the follow up to 2007’s Tears of the Valedictorian. “A Flower In A Glove” kicks off the 9 song album and is another manic, swirling epic in the spirit of 2007’s brilliant “Bushels”. Listen up.MP3 :: A Flower In A Glove(from Paul’s Tomb: A Triumph. Info here)------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Canada's Frog Eyes first came on my radar when they teamed up with Destroyer's Dan Bejar first as his back up band then as Swan Lake. Frog Eyes are releasing their seventh album, Paul’s Tomb: A Triumph which took almost three years to make. The first single from the album is "A Flower in a Glove". At nearly 9-minutes long, its not the typical single but it is definitely epic. Check it out.MP3: Frog Eyes "A Flower in a Glove"

Carey Mercer is a living treasure. A songwriter of huge powers and abilities. So, it is with great delight that I can reveal a new Frog Eyes album is on the way. "Paul's Tomb: A Triumph" is to be released on April 27. This release will also be the band's first for Dead Oceans. Have a listen to "A Flower in a Glove" and marvel at the genius.Paul's Tomb: A Triumph Track Listing1 A Flower in a Glove2 The Sensitive Girls3 Odetta's War4 Rebel Horns5 Lear, in the Park6 Styled by Dr. Roberts7 Lear in Love8 Violent Psalms9 Paul's TombMP3: A Flower in a Glove-Frog Eyes

Led by sagacious howler, songwriter, and occasional op-ed writer Carey Mercery, Frog Eyes are following 2007's Tears Of The Valedictorian with Paul's Tomb: A Triumph. We've only heard the collection's 9-minute opener "A Flower In A Glove," but so far ... a triumph indeed. That said, like his Swan Lake bandmate Dan Bejar's monumental "Bay Of Pigs" disco or his own Enemy Mine standout "Spanish Gold, 2044" (to choose a more recent Mercer composition), "A Flower" deserves repeat listens and plenty of unpacking. For starters, note the awesome build at 4:42 while you get to the bottom the song's words, the album cover, etc.Continue reading New Frog Eyes - "A Flower In A Glove"...
