Tuxis Giant – “Days”
“Days” is the latest from Tuxis Giant, and I’m here for it just as I was back in May when I reviewed their other single “Last Laugh” (here). Matt O’Connor was inspired by Spirited Away and other Miyazaki films, specifically that “…even the smallest moments contain their own sacred weight” – which also happens to be the main thesis of the album.
The track itself feels, appropriately, like it could fit into anime or a JRPG. The main guitar riff made me feel like I had a video game paused on a level with a thumpin’ tune and I just wanted to stay there to keep experiencing it. The chord progression definitely got stuck in my head and the temptation to start playing along was difficult to ignore.
You Won’t Remember is out August 15th. The music video (well worth the watch, tbf) is embedded below from YouTube, and you can find the all three singles on Spotify or Apple Music.
Hopefully you will remember, but if you don’t, that’s okay. Give the band a follow on their socials or Spotify and you’ll get a polite reminder when the album drops this week.
