Suicide & Sunshine, Trophy Eyes, LP

Just like the title Suicide and Sunshine, Trophy Eyes' fourth album is about contrast. About light and dark. About beauty and tragedy. About the full spectrum of life, as told through the eyes of frontman John Floreani. "It's the human experience," says Floreani. "What we experience and how we navigate it. The millions of tiny flashes of light that are memories and thoughts and feelings and smells, all those little moments make up a lifetime. They're beautifully tragic because they don't mean anything to anyone, and on the scale of everything in the universe don't mean a damn thing. But it's so beautiful that they happen in the first place." Floreani's willingness to dive so deeply into the most personal parts of his life is matched by the band's desire to explore the very boundaries of the hardcore genre.
