Los Angeles-based indie rockers Easy Sleeper have recently returned with their new single, “Timekeeper”, the first track shared from their upcoming debut album.
The track captures a breezy charm that blends elements of shimmering indie rock and pop with a bit of an 80s spirit. Its a track that looks at the undercurrent of anxiety, and looking at the narrator’s “changing relationship with time as it progresses.” Speaking further on the track, the band’s Douglas Guttenberger adds:
“Pressure, in the form of time, is a never-ending facet of human existence. “Any other living entity wouldn’t care a whiff: however, the curse of human consciousness ensures it is always hanging around. It’s up there in the nether regions of the mind. It’s there on your wrist. Your bedside table. Your kitchen appliances. It is ever-present. Like the thought of an impending Monday back in the office-even though 5pm on Friday has just arrived. Or after conquering a daunting goal, a brief burst of joy is cut short by thoughts of “what bill is next and when is it due?”
