Cymbals Eat Guitars + Hooray for Earth + Beige

Staten Island's grandiose indie-rockers Cymbals Eat Guitars play behind the just-released Lenses Alien, a dark and ambitious record that kicks off with the eight-minute Pavement-influenced track "Rifle Eyesight (Proper Name)." Sweetly shambling NYC outfit Hooray for Earth opens, in support of excellent debut LP True Loves.
