Our Eyes Go Blank Tonight

 

Obligatory Deftones reference in the name, Our Eyes Go Blank Tonight is a post-hardcore/Math rock band from Houston, Texas. Members of OEGBT met and formed in early 2022 as a group of friends from their highschool where they decided that it would be cool to start a band and play some music. By December 2022 they released their single, Done Waiting, before releasing their debut EP, year of us, in March of 2023. Despite only one official EP (as of writing this anyway lol) it is DEFINITELY worth your time. Their music comprises melodic tapping, fast paced songs, along with punchy riffs that combine twinkly emo with insane djenting in some of their more heavier songs. I highly recommend listening to "Monster Reserve" as it is their most powerful, eargasming producing track that they have and I can't wait to see what the future holds for them.

Edit: In light of new information, I feel like that it should be necessary to acknowledge a former member by the name of Jacob Adikson. A few months ago, as of writing this, Jacob was outed as an abusive predator whom raped a 14 year old and assaulted several people in the scene. Mind you, he is no longer in the band and was confirmed to be kicked out when this information was brought to light. OEGBT is a wonderful band that makes amazing music but Jacob is a sick bastard whose actions should be known to the public and have those around the scene to be wary of him.
