STOP SCROLLING. Octopus Knife Fight has a message for anyone glued to their screen. The alternative rock duo returns with their first release of the year, "Eyes Up," featuring Lia Menaker, a track that encourages listeners to look up, step outside, and reconnect with the real world.
The upbeat single tackles a familiar modern trap: spending so much time inside an online space that the moments happening right in front of us slip by. "Eyes Up" captures that feeling of missing out on life while social media quietly absorbs our time and attention.
Rather than sounding preachy, the band delivers the message over a bright, energetic backing track that's impossible not to move to. It's the kind of song that makes you want to toss your phone aside, get outside, and actually live for a bit.
Take a moment to check out Octopus Knife Fight's new song, "Eyes Up", but don't forget to also take some time to take in the world around you.
