Bat Eyes
Belgian indie rock band Bat Eyes resurface with a string of new singles, the first new material since their 2022 self-titled debut.
Instead of the bright, hook-heavy songwriting that helped establish the quartet as one of Belgium’s more intriguing guitar bands, “Alamine” arrives as something smaller, softer, and purposefully blurred around the edges. A track that feels like it wandered in from another room and decided to stay.
Formed around singer-songwriter Koen Wijnant, Bat Eyes built their name on crisp powerpop melodies and a clear affection for ’90s indie rock.
Operating as a focused four-piece with Luna De Bruyne, Tomas Serrien, and Birger Ameys, the new material suggests a record that moves freely between states of blur and clarity, restraint and release, and confirms that the band is just as comfortable hitting hard as they are drifting off.
