Last year, the prolific but mercurial Philadelphia underground veterans Nyxy Nyx released Cult Classics, Vol. 1, their first-ever studio album, as well as a self-titled record. This year they've shared the stray lo-fi tracks "Devil Hands" and "Concerning Evil Spirits," and now they've got another one.
Nyxy Nyx have labeled their new Bandcamp single "Pea Brain" as a "demo," but that doesn't really mean much when it comes to this band. They'll often revisit older songs, but their demos generally sound about as good as the ones that don't have the word "demo" anywhere on them. "Pea Brain" is a folky, wistful meditation with reverb all over everything, and it's got a sense of melodic sweep that I really like. Listen below.
