Big Eyes announced Streets of the Loss

Posted in Records on March 3, 2019

Big Eyes is back with a new single, a tour at the end of the month, and a brand new LP titled Streets of the Lost.

The new album releases on April 5 on Greenway Records, with the teaser track “Lucky You” out now (below).

“‘Lucky You’ is about the lack of awareness people often have concerning their privilege, and the abundance of entitlement that often accompanies wealth,” says vocalist Kait Eldridge. “This song is not about class war. Some people are just born into lucky circumstances. It's a reminder for everyone to recognize their privilege, be grateful for what you have, and stand up for those who aren't quite as lucky.”

In speaking of the album at large, the band says Streets of the Lost explores heavier topics than their previous work.
