The Night Has Eyes

Limited Edition 12” Vinyl  |  Halloween 2025

For the first time on vinyl, a lost gem of 90's garage punk for the darkly inclined. Recorded in 1997 by Greg Talenfeld (Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Pavement, The Walkmen) and never released, THE NIGHT HAS EYES is a hidden treasure unearthed from the fertile end-of-the-century NYC underground scene. The limited edition 12" vinyl comes with a 16-page booklet full of never-before-seen photos of the band shot in 1998 by Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Iggy Pop) and Lilian Lee. Release date 10/31/25.

“The Night Has Eyes sounds as young and wild as we might on the good (or bad) days, and well (well, well, well) worth the wait.” — Zachary Lipez, editor at large, CREEM Magazine
