Los Angeles, CA (Tuesday, August 29th) – “CRYPTOMNESIA” is the second single from heavy-metal group EYE AM and they have just announced it will be released November 24, 2023, and pre-orders are available NOW!
Band members Kenny Hickey, Johnny Kelly (Type O Negative), Kirk Windstein, and Todd Strange joined together this year to deliver a nostalgic powerhouse classic rock feel with a modern edge, and their new single promises to continue this addictive sound fans know and love.
Kenny Hickey is the first to share his excitement of this new single, “As a musician, it’s often difficult to listen to a song just for the enjoyment of it once it’s been completed primarily because of the many hours of work and concentration that go into it and the repetitive nature of the recording process in general. But, when I sit back and listen to “Cryptomnesia” all that seems to melt away and I fall in love with it again. “
Kenny goes on to say, “The song is more of an experience rather than just another tune to fill in some time while you’re on your way here or there.”
“I’m really excited for the fans to get a chance to hear a more developed version of EYE AM. This song Kenny had the true universal connection to creativity. I picked him up from the airport before the recording session started. We got back to where we were staying and within 30 minutes he wrote the opening riff and Melody to the song, it just poured out of him.” I think it’s some of the best stuff he’s ever done in his whole entire career.” Andrew Spaulding, Corpse Paint Records
Andrew adds, “Once Kenny took his new creation to the studio, he sat down with Kirk and the magic happened again. After the two developed the song, Todd and Johnny joined in and collectively as a band, arranged it. You could tell the guys are creating a sound, not just playing notes.”
Kicking off the excitement for the release, the band and Corpse Paint Records teamed together for a once-in-a-lifetime contest for fans to win a trip to New Orleans and meet the band, and now, pre-orders for the single are live with several different (and extremely limited) variants – not to mention, an opportunity to get your name in the EYE AM album credits in 2024.

“I met Andrew at a Metallica show in late ‘23 and he told me about this project. Being friends with Kirk (and a fan of Type O) I said I’d be happy to have Vintage Vinyl Bel Air help sponsor to get it off the ground, just like what we did with “Dreams Always Die With The Sun.” -Dave, Vintage Vinyl Bel Air
“I got to know Dave and Vintage Vinyl Bel Air through being a collector. I bought several pieces from him online long before we met in person. I always loved to shop his online store because it was super impressive. I couldn’t believe how many instruments and cool autographed memorabilia he had when I saw him in person last year. I told him about this project and was beyond excited when he said he wanted to help support it.”-Andrew Spaulding, Corpse Paint Records
