‘in habit’ is the second album by Eyes to Argus, released in July 2021 via Post Recordings (Indianapolis, US) and pressed for vinyl by dunk!pressing (Belgium).
The six tracks on ‘in habit’ are each symbolized by a different part of a house, and the band discuss personal stories about the spaces they grew up in, the spaces that changed throughout the years, and the people within and around those spaces.
The band also wanted to explore how we experience the same spaces differently. To this aim, they reached out six local visual artists to each create an artwork for a song on the album. These artists were Sam Falzon, Elisa von Brockdorff, Moira Zahra, Theo Cachia, Malcolm Alden, and Matthew Cardona. These artworks are included in the ‘in habit’ vinyl package as a postcard set that also acts as the lyric sheets.
The band enlisted the guidance of YMCA Malta for this project, who provided a wealth of knowledge and nuance around the album themes. This collaboration culminated in a print drop campaign called ‘in habit in print’ in 2022.
