"This is wonderful stuff - brave and experimental, yet warmly human. Make room on your folk revival shelf for something that may be influenced by folk, but is in no way a revival." - SPLENDID The Smother Party, The Eyesores' fifth release, is a collection of tales about real and imagined horrors. The music is decidedly more cabaret than the previous CD, 2005's The Quiet Room. However, The Smother Party does feature two lengthy instrumentals including the monumental "Gutterhelmet Ascending," a highly dynamic, organic long-form duo piece for drums and distorted accordion by Alec K. Redfearn and Matt McLaren. Slow, simmering noir-ish dirges, spastic no-wave tangos, repetitive rhythmic conundrums, Weimar-style cabaret songs, drunken revelry, crippling depression, extreme self loathing, Catholic guilt, clanking, scraping and radio noise are some of the many facets that make up The Eyesores' sound.
