40 Lashes return with aching new single ‘My Eyes’ ahead of upcoming EP
Brooklyn-based indie rockers 40 Lashes have unveiled ‘My Eyes’, the fourth single from their upcoming EP ‘Cheer On, Rock On, Party On’. Mixed by Brett Romnes (Oso Oso) and mastered by Mike Kalajian (All Time Low), the track adds emotional depth to the band’s growing catalog of raw, hook-laden anthems.
‘My Eyes’ is a swaying, heart-on-sleeve indie rock song that surveys the wreckage of a doomed romance with pained clarity. Fusing the emo-inflected melancholy of Tiger’s Jaw with the punchy, DIY power-pop spirit of Joyce Manor, the track sees 40 Lashes distilling late-night regret into something both reflective and cathartic.
From its chugging rhythm section to its wistful, guitar-driven chorus, ‘My Eyes’ captures a quiet intensity that feels instantly familiar yet distinctly their own. There’s longing in the lyrics, vulnerability in the delivery, and just enough grit in the production to keep things grounded.
