The Smile Detail New Album, ‘Wall Of Eyes’

The band's second studio album is out in January

The Smile will kick off 2024 with the release of a new album, Wall Of Eyes.

Spanning eight tracks, the band’s second studio album follows 2022’s full-length debut, A Light For Attracting Attention. The new record is preceded by the title cut, which you can watch a Paul Thomas Anderson-directed video for below.

Earlier this year, The Smile shared the standalone single ‘Bending Hectic’, which also appears on Wall Of Eyes. In December 2022, they released a live album capturing part of their performance at that year’s Montreux Jazz Festival.

XL Recordings will release Wall Of Eyes on January 26, 2024.
