STRFKR’s Open Your Eyes is a dreamy sort of indie rock that adopts the distinct synth sound of 1980’s new wave. Emotive, warm vocals run parallel to the bold instrumental arrangements. When these vocals drop out for a second in the middle of the track, Open Your Eyes is reinvigorated. Smoothed out, fun, and sunny, Open Your Eyes is surprisingly deep in the instrumentation; fans will continue to dig out new rarities each time they put on the track. STRFK refreshes this 1980s / alternative style to speak to an entirely new generation, all while creating something unique.
