Everyone's Crushed
Life is horribly dark right now. And yet, it is not unfunny.
Thatâs the sentiment that animates Water From Your Eyes on their new album, and first for Matador, âEveryoneâs Crushedâ.
On the follow-up to the Brooklyn duoâs 2021 breakthrough, âStructureâ, Rachel Brown (they/them) and Nate Amos (he/him) find silliness and fatalism dancing in a frantic lockstep, using heart palpitating rhythms and absurdist, deadpan lyrics to convey stories of personal and societal unease. Described by Brown as Water From Your Eyesâ most collaborative record ever, itâs a swollen contusion of an album: experimental pop music thatâs pretty and violent, raw and indelible.
