Austin, Texas, noise-rockers … And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead have never been known for subtlety, so it may take a minute to wrap your head around the sound of Borrowed Eyes and the Blood Red Road, the new band from former Trail of Dead member Danny Wood.

It’s more akin to the spooky, intense Americana of, say, the Gilded Palace of Sin or Castanets, on Borrowed Eyes’ first song, “Slaves.” The song is half of a 7-inch single split with fellow New Yorkers Midnight Masses. Borrowed Eyes plans to release a full-length album later this year.
