Have you ever encountered such formidable life circumstances that instead of confronting them head-on and finding solutions, you choose to surrender and evade the problems? Even if life seems to be going well, do you find yourself so accustomed to things going wrong that you prefer self-sabotage to truly allowing yourself to embrace the joys of life? A Days Wait, the beloved Canadian Indie Pop duo, addresses this very sentiment in their latest single “Eyes On The Road” featuring Vic Malang.
After captivating listeners with their emotive and unforgettable track “Indelible,” A Days Wait ventures into a Retrowave/Indietronica sound with “Eyes On The Road,” further enveloping us in waves of nostalgia through its ’80s-inspired beats. Whether it be through their heartfelt lyrics or the sonic landscape they create, A Days Wait never fails to transport their audience back to simpler times, before the era of social media and smartphones. One can easily lose themselves in their music, grounding oneself in the present moment while feeling momentarily transported to a bygone era of personal significance.
“Eyes On The Road,” produced by Vic Malang, exhibits the intrinsic human inclination to flee when faced with adversity. It serves as a reminder that all of us, at some point, have felt the temptation to escape rather than confront our challenges head-on. The track beautifully captures this universal experience with its evocative melodies and introspective lyrics, providing solace and a sense of shared understanding to listeners.
With its masterful mixing by Mitch Bowden and expert mastering by Color Theory, “Eyes On The Road” emerges as a poignant reflection on the complexities of human nature. A Days Wait, once again, demonstrates their prowess in creating music that resonates deeply with its audience. Their ability to weave together nostalgia, introspection, and catchy melodies is truly commendable.
Overall, “Eyes On The Road” is an introspective masterpiece that prompts us to reflect on our natural inclination to run away when life becomes arduous. A Days Wait’s distinct musical style offers a cathartic escape, whisking us away to a time before the distractions of the modern world. Their latest single is a testament to their talent and continues to solidify their position as indie sweethearts.
