The five-piece Melbourne garage-rock band Creature Fear intimately captures the emotional vulnerability of this predicament on Big Summer Eyes. Gentle acoustics and folk-like vocals from the group whisk you into a somber mood before a ray of hope shines through in the chorus and the drums later on.
Ultimately the listener concludes on what they feel when listening to Big Summer Eyes. There’s no doubt it pulls on heartstrings.
