We heard about Smokey Brights ages ago now from our good friends who share with them the city of Seattle. However, we first saw the band for ourselves this summer at Timber Fest, undoubtedly one of the country’s best small festivals. But what’s important today is that Smokey Brights are all set to release a new full-length album, Taste for Blood, come November 11th. And today, we are proud to premiere “Monster House,” a track from that album. The song is an epic folk rock number built on huge guitars and anthemic production. According to a statement from the band, the song is “about gentrification and the sensation of not recognizing your own home town.” We love sharing the music of up-and-coming bands with you, and we’re excited to bring you a premiere from a like-minded community a couple thousand miles away. Stream “Monster House” below.
