Snapshot Of A Beginner vinyl

Going fast, slowly, could describe Nap Eyes. The Nova Scotian troupe are geographically removed from the ferocious and insatiable global music hubs, and therefore the idea of them refusing to stay still but also rejecting anything like the pace of big city scenes seems to make perfect sense. You can almost picture the log cabin they work in, and the shadows dancing off beams by way of gas lamps as they plot their own unique course. In reality, that's probably not how it happens, but the band fronted by Nigel Chapman doesn't adhere to normal rules. In the past they have called upon icy forms of psych and rougher adventures in alternative rock. Their tracks are often epic in length, running up to 20-minutes, but their own view on this is that they could actually be far longer. 'Snapshot Of A Beginner' is both familiar and new - the guitars are here again, but sound wiser and, quieter and more patient.
