Leyland Kirby, “Breaks My Heart Each Time”

Much like the Sevendeaths record we discussed earlier today, Leyland Kirby’s latest EP opens with an epic march straight towards the sun. “Breaks My Heart Each Time” sidesteps its saccharine title by bleaching computerized beats with feathery layers of feedback and a counter-melody that makes this tribute to rave culture—the warehouse days, not the EDM era we live in now—as moving as any of the self-released efforts Kirby produced in the past five years.

‘Breaks My Heart Each Time is due out February 15th through Apollo Records.
