Out now, Crushed By Everyone is a song-by-song rework of Water From Your Eyes’ critically-adored Matador / Remote Control debut, Everyone’s Crushed.
Curated by band members Rachel Brown and Nate Amos, the album dips heavily into WFYE’s personal rolodex with contributions that map the group’s rapidly expanding community – friends, tour-mates, and peers. It’s the rare “remix” record where everybody has met in person (or at least shared some DMs).
Kassie Krut twists the title track up amid tumbling kick drums and snare pops. Nourished by Time croons atop a chopped up and scrambled ‘True Life.’ The record also finds Water From Your Eyes reinterpreting themselves, with Nate dialing Nu Metal grind and microtonal drone into an undeniably epic update on ‘Barley‘.
