Eclectic Italian quartet Eugenia Post Meridie reveal their sophomore full-length record, a rather magnificent musical masterpiece. The gloriously kaleidoscopic, dazzling celebration of sound 'like i need tension' is available everywhere now. Demonstrated over eight tracks, the all encompassing, musical odyssey, 'like i need tension' features initial single 'willpower'; which burst across our radar with lashings of personality, and became the introduction to the now familiar Indie outfit. Next up was the punchy and fearless 'around my neck' and last but by no means least came the intriguing, alluring 'whisper', the calm before the sophomore album storm. Gifted with a further five previously unheard gems, listeners certainly have plenty to sink their teeth into. With focus track 'crucial spring' traversing the spectrums of shadow, the progressive and percussive 'unchained will', the slow voluminous ballad 'ocean flows' and the infectious, chaotic energy of 'tiny perspectives' and 'mazes of gazes'. Oozing with iridescence, flavour and texture, there's something to suit all manners of music fans. Completed over a span of two years plus a two week post-lockdown writing and recording stint, it was then that like i need tension truly came to life in a small converted barn near the village of Montaldo Bormida, in northern Italy. "It was a totally collaborative process... All the composing was done together, right there in the room." and thus, like i need tension was born. "Tension is a powerful force. It drives things forwards, its friction producing interesting and unexpected results. Above all, it fuels creativity, inspiring and focusing in equal measure.". Placing its roots somewhere in the mystical universe of Hiatus Kaiyote, Christine and the Queens, PYJÆN and Tame Impala.
