eleven eleven's latest release "head" is an album that weaves dark themes in and out of landscapes of watery and pulsing guitar textures over "in the pocket" grooves. citing the cure and the smiths as just a few of the many influences, jeff giuliani dislplays a lyrical sadness through a sometimes intimate, always emotional vocal delivery. from the first track "forever," the album pulls you in and keeps you static through to the end of this collection of melodic english pop songs perfectly fashioned by 4 american lads.
