LOS ANGELES, CA (May 12, 2023) – Today, alt singer-songwriter and producer Eyedress unveils his latest release, “Escape From The Killer”out now via RCA Records.
Released as a two-track bundle, the single is available in two distinct variations – the 1994 and the 2008 versions. Awash in heavy percussion, electric guitar riffs, and distorted synths, the 1994 version is laced with shoegaze influences, while the 2008 version slows things down, swapping in acoustic guitars, 808s, and an alt-pop driven sound. Accompanying the release is the official video for the 2008 version, which can be seen here.
“Escape From The Killer” follows Eyedress’ Valentine’s Day ode, “Flowers & Chocolate,” released in time for the holiday earlier this year. His first single with RCA Records, “Flowers & Chocolate” was paired with a music video directed by multi-hyphenate Eddie Huang, which saw Eyedress cruising through LA in a red convertible filled with flowers.
Born in Manila and now residing in Los Angeles, Filipino artist Eyedress has continued to make a name for himself over the past decade, blending a wide array of genres from lo-fi hip-hop to post-punk to ‘80s-influenced goth and more to craft something that is distinctly and wholly his own. He certified himself as an artist to watch when his 2019 single “Jealous” hit viral status, appearing in over one million videos on TikTok and earning an RIAA platinum certification. He followed suit with “Romantic Lover” the following year and “Something About You” in 2021, both of which have gone gold. Last year, Eyedress made his Coachella debut and released his latest full-length project FULL TIME LOVER, which featured collaborations from N.E.R.D.’s Chad Hugo, Nosaj Thing, The Drums, and more, including his partner, Elvia. The acclaimed record earned an official remix treatment from Kevin Shields of My Bloody Valentine, who put his own spin on the album’s track “HOUSE OF CARDS.”
