Tunnel Visions - Clear Skies

When one thinks of Brighton it’s always as a sunny place, the ocean glistening and the sand blindingly bright in the sun.

But, like any city, it has dark secrets lurking in corners, down side streets and in basements.

Like Tunnel Visions: beginning life as a three-piece, this circus of tricksters have evolved to become seven, their sound a seedy fusion of garage rock and classic British psychedelia. This maiden EP is one part of a story, or experience, based around the dominance of dreams in both day and night.

As the title suggests, the five songs cover the daytime, but it’s less a collection of songs and more of a 20-minute snapshot into their murky world.

As ‘Overground’ opens the band are all braced, seemingly taking a momentary pause before launching into this mini-opus of jangling psychedelia, complete with Syd Barrett intonation and imagery (‘the dust moved their fresh skins around’) before launching into an unsettling gallop with a Peter Gunn-esque guitar lick.
