The width and depth of submissions for Ball of Wax continues to astound. Eggshells’ submission “Bone Marrow” – ethereal and astoundingly rich in its attention to detail – is a signature song. Just coming off a spot at this year’s Seagaze Festival, you get the feeling we’ll hear a lot more from this band. The band’s public-facing sites are a little coy, with minimal information on their bandcamp page, but Peter and Benjamin Verdoes are the primary members. All of this is incredibly appealing.
A band that wants its music to speak for itself. Shoegaze music with intelligence and polish. Wherever the band is going, I hope they stay with the Ball of Wax community.
Come to the Ball of Wax 52 show at Conor Byrne next Friday for a chance to see Eggshells live.
