About

It doesn’t seem possible, but the indie-psych duo Golden Animals swear that aside from a harmonica cameo by Oak Munson on the opening track, the entirety of <i>Hear Eye Go</i>’s instrumentation is Linda Beecroft’s drums and Tommy Eisner’s guitar. It may sound like there’s an organ lurking back in the mix of the Doors-ian “Tender Hearts,” where the question of whatever became of Lizard King Jim Morrison appears to be answered, but the band insists not. It’s a testament to the duo’s superior powers that this long-in-coming second album is such a fully realized success. The duo calls Brooklyn home, but Baltimore native Eisner and the Sweden-born Beecroft spent some time in the California desert, thinking it was the perfect place to record. Yet they discovered reality doesn't always match the fantasy and that being in Brooklyn's Williamsburg neighborhood with engineer Matt Boynton (MGMT, Kurt Vile) would be the way to get what they needed. From the nasty garage blues of “All Your Life” through to the murky “You Don’t Hear Me Now,” there’s magic buried in the heavy reverb here, eventually seeping through every pore.
