Tombstones In Their Eyes
We are excited to have Tombstones In The Eyes join us this week on the Guest Playlist Series, exclusively on Soundwaves. Check out these tracks that they have curated for you that have inspired their career.
Sonic Catharsis and Fuzzed-Out Majesty
Based in the sprawling concrete and coastal fog of Los Angeles, California, Tombstones In Their Eyes have crafted a sound that is as expansive as the universe and as intimate as a secret. Founded by childhood friends John Treanor and James Cooper, the band has evolved from a cross-country demo-swapping project into a formidable collective known for their "heavy, sad, and beautiful" sonic landscapes.
Their music occupies the hazy intersection of psychedelic rock and shoegaze—a place where towering walls of fuzz-drenched guitars meet ethereal, melodic vocal harmonies. For frontman Treanor, songwriting serves as a way to navigate the shadows of anxiety and depression and emerge with something resonant and hopeful.
With a rotating cast of talented collaborators, Tombstones In Their Eyes continue to pull listeners into their unique "asylum" of sound—a safe place to wait out the storm, draped in reverb and distortion.
