"Alley Eyes are a young band developing their sound, and that means experimenting with new sounds and styles. They try their hand at self-described 'desert psych' on their new single 'ACDC Messiah,' and it feels like a band really coming into their own. The guitars and vocals are gritty here, with detailed lyrics about going through the roughest of times. Things are relatively mellow during the verses, but bust open at times for screaming guitar solos." - Breaking & Entering
lyrics
Cry, ground yourself and take ahold
The wire, rushing through your fingertips,
Alive. Grab your knife and jam it deep
Inside. Tear your lungs, it makes you wanna
Sigh, burns your brain, electrifies your
Mind. (Scrambled like eggs, locks up your legs)
Fried, broken, shattered, thrown aside and
I’m the AC/DC Arc Messiah
Real, world so bright with colors you can
Feel, (Better than you and you know it too)
Heal, time is lost, and you just couldn’t
Steal enough to stop from slipping under
Rain, fills your mouth and floods you through the
Plains, fills you up and drags you down the
Drain, out the other side, baptized in
Pain, the AC/DC Arc Messiah
