Allston’s own Boys of Summer Beeef are back again. The four-piece indie rock troupe have been relatively quiet since 2019’s Bull in the Shade LP, but the gears are starting to turn again as they ready their next album for release later this year. That said, with an extended breather comes a newfound perspective for the band, as seen on their latest single which we’re premiering today at Allston Pudding. “Observational Eros” is a stunner: crunchier and heavier than the usual Beeef fare, while still barring plenty of their signature moves. Peep that searing guitar solo emerging from the jangle in the back half for proof of concept. 

Beeef fronter Perry Eaton had this to say about the new track:

“After listening to a keynote speech called ‘How to do nothing’ by artist and educator Jenny Odell, it helped me to reconsider what a creative process looks like, feel more present and purposeful, and take a little bit of pressure off. “Observational Eros”,  and much of the rest of our upcoming album, is directly inspired by Odell’s ideas.”

Beeef’s third album is out later this year, so keep your eyes on their socials for more info.
