Liminal by Eosine

Amazing shoegaze made in the Low Countries? You bet. Eosine is a band based in Liège, founded and fronted by Elena Lacroix (22), and one of the most exciting and promising Belgian indie bands of the moment.

Combining progressive structures, chiseled vocal harmonies and openhearted melodies, they make the kind of ethereal music that fans of My Bloody Valentine, Lush and Psychotic Monks will love.

Their live shows are fiery, psychedelic and compelling, as showcased at festivals like Les Nuits Botanique, Dour Festival and Left of the Dial (NL). Landing a record deal with Mayway Records in 2023, their conquest of Belgium, The Netherlands, France and beyond continues with the release of new EP ‘Liminal’ on September 27, containing four songs that perfectly embody what Eosine stands for: epic, mesmerizing shoegaze and the dreamy voice of Lacroix. Opening track ‘UV’ would fit in perfectly on Slowdive’s current setlist, while single ‘Progeria’ adds an extra prog layer and a smashing outro. Second single ‘Plant Healing’ sounds like a younger sibling of Ride in their heydays, and on closing track ‘Digitaline’ everything comes together: passion, hurried guitar and drums (think: The Wedding Present), tempo changes and dreamy lyrics, all begging to crank the volume up to 11.

Eosine will present ‘Liminal’ at Botanique in Brussels on October 24 and at Reflektor in hometown Liège on December 12.

Eosine is a Belgian rock quartet founded by Elena Lacroix. Inspired by the noisy yet sometimes ethereal soundings of shoegaze, Eosine’s songs can flow into some progressive structures, still driven by chiseled vocals harmonies or openhearted melodies.
