Brooklyn shoegazers Dead Leaf Echo are back with a new EP titled True.Deep.Sleeper. The four song ep is another brilliant serving of shimmery, elegant, and majestic dreampop/shoegaze. Check out the title track below, stream all four songs here, and order True.Deep.Sleeper on standard black or colored ink vinyl here. A digital version is also available from iTunes and Amazon.
Those not already familiar with Dead Leaf Echo should check out the debut album Thought & Language which was produced by John Fryer (bonus: album artwork was created by noted 4AD artist Vaughan Oliver.) The standout track from Thought & Language is "Kingmaker" -- watch the music video for "Kingmaker" below:
