Microcosm (single)
A standalone interim single by Maltese experimental post rock band Eyes to Argus that was independently released on May 22, 2019.
Background
Microcosm is Eyes to Argus's first recorded music since the release of their debut album VEER in 2017. It shows a grittier, more charged side to the band, without compromising on any of the atmospheric sounds that they are known for.
This new single marks the first production-level music video for Eyes to Argus. Putting themes of egotism and megalomania under the lens, the video begins with a floating microbe and zooms into the life of Pastor Benito. Microcosm is a Francesca Mercieca and Jack Hayter production.
Microcosm was recorded and produced by Samuel Attard between late 2018 and early 2019 at his personal studio.
