THE WISE BLOODS IGNITE LONDON’S SPIRIT WITH EYE OUT FOR THE DEVIL
London’s trailblazing reggae band, The Wise Bloods, are shaking the scene with their daring new album, Eye Out For The Devil. Hailed by Rolling Stone Argentina as “the natural heirs of the UK’s rich reggae tradition,” the group delivers a bold blend of roots reggae with raw urban storytelling, pushing the genre’s boundaries.
At first glance, Eye Out For The Devil might seem like a traditional reggae album, but it dives deep into the complexities of London life. The haunting album cover by Joey McKelvie—a bus stop hiding sinister undertones—hints at the record’s themes: beauty, chaos, and resilience.
“London is vibrant and full of culture, but it’s also tough,” shares the band’s lead singer Jesse James MacFarlane. “Depression feels endemic here—it’s in your bones.“
This sentiment echoes in tracks like See I Cry, addressing global injustices, and Baby You Need Me, a joyful, uplifting escape.
The Wise Bloods aren’t afraid to disrupt reggae norms. Their music boldly explores hardship and hope, setting them apart as modern innovators. The enhanced masters bring a richer dimension to their sound, offering something fresh for both new and loyal fans.
With Eye Out For The Devil, The Wise Bloods solidify their place as reggae’s fearless frontrunners. Get ready for a vinyl drop in 2025 and more unforgettable tunes to come.
