New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Released via Doughnut Records, Eaton Super 10 (ESX) marks the fourth installment in the ongoing adventures of Snowball ii and was written, produced and mixed by group vocalist, songwriter and guitarist Jackson Wargo. The band also announced a special vinyl release of ESX that will be posted online for pre-order later in April. Since the band's inception, Wargo has continued to craft a unique brand of shoegaze laced with indie rock and power pop that has impressed media outlets including New Noise, Grimy Goods, Buzzbands.la and It's Psychedelic Baby.
Snowball ii recently unveiled their first single off of Eaton Super 10, "Lost In Juarez," which will see a music video released this Spring. To accompany the release of ESX, Snowball ii produced a comic infomercial called "Music You Can Hear!", which features members of Spacemen 3, Lilys, Maroon 5, Surfer Blood, Collapsing Scenery, The War on Drugs, Atreyu, comedian Gregg Turkington (Decker, On Cinema, Neil Hamburger), among others, and their reactions to Eaton Super 10. The clip is available online and premiered last week via The Big Takeover.
Wargo also brought
Annie Hardy (Giant Drag, Deftones) into the studio to sing backing vocals on ESX and also directed the upcoming official music video for "Lost in Juarez." World renowned artist Stephen "ESPO" Powers (David Byrne, Kurt Vile) spray painted the EP's cover art on a wall in downtown Philadelphia. Eaton Super 10 was mastered by TW Walsh (Pedro the Lion, The Shins, Sufjan Stevens).
