bad for education discover new momentum with 'Close My Eyes'

Close My Eyes moves with pace through bright guitars and surf tinged energy. The song feels shaped by distance from the city and the slower rhythm of life in Wairoa where ideas had room to breathe. That pace sits underneath the track and guides the tone, shaping the way the song feels. Themes of love and mortality move through the song with a sense of openness that suggests an artist sitting with big questions rather than trying to outrun them.

The release points toward a band reconnecting with its roots while refining its direction. There is a clear link to the indie spirit that has long defined local music in Aotearoa. There is also a stronger sense of self emerging through the choices made in sound and presentation. The artwork reinforces this shift through personal symbolism that gives the project warmth and sincerity.

The video pushes the story further. Its focus on effort and repetition mirrors the emotional current of the track. The imagery takes the internal tension of the song and places it in a physical space. The result encourages the listener to think about what it means to carry emotional weight through everyday life.

Close My Eyes positions bad for education in a compelling place. The track suggests growth. The creative vision feels more certain. The return speaks to a band ready to build something lasting.
