Milly make songs that simmer and spark. The Los Angeles-based band, led by songwriter Brendan Dyer, finds power in the slow burn: their music carries the tension of a lakes surface moments before a storm hits, or a cracking pane of glass moments before it shatters. Their debut album, Eternal Ring, is kinetic, physical, and often a little bit volatile a mixture of emo music and 90s-indebted indie that tastes as if its been fermenting for years, feeding on itself until it becomes something new entirely. A profound first full-length statement from Dyer and his closest collaborator, bass player Yarden Erez, its a record that takes the anxiety of modern-day America and filters it through a prismatic, powerfully individualistic lens, resulting in something intense, bracing, and deeply modern. Using 2021s Wish Goes On EP as a blueprint, this is Milly with the fat trimmed and the frayed edges cut off. I feel like Wish Goes On was like, a nice teaser, Dyer says. Everything that we're doing now was there but I feel like we just let it marinate a little longer or something it feels a lot more focused now. To understand Eternal Ring, you have to go back to Dyers childhood. Learning guitar and drums from his uncle, a musician, from the age of ten, Dyer was one of the only young people in his rural Connecticut town interested in anything other than sports and other stereotypical markers of American life. Naturally, Dyer began to gravitate towards emo the closest thing many teens have to outsider art as an art form he could identify with, bands like Hawthorne Heights subconsciously laying the groundwork for the music he would make as an adult. It probably only lasted a year or two that I was interested in that sort of thing, but now I feel like it's become a thing in my life where it's like, full circle, he says. When we were writing this album, and touring before writing this album, I was reconnecting with a lot of the music that I was listening to in my youth and realizing that there was a reason why I liked this music so much. Those seeds, though, lay dormant for a long time before they came to fruition. Before Milly, Dyer was the leader of the bright, well-liked garage-pop project Furnsss, a hard-touring act that, at one point, Dyer thought he would play in forever. While on tour with Furnsss in 2016, he began to discover a strain of noisy, anxious dream pop bands, typified by acts like Swirlies and My Bloody Valentine, that he had never delved into before. In the back of his head, he knew that his next project would, in some way, incorporate these influences. I just had this funny idea like, when I get home from this trip, I'm gonna start another project and try to wear the different hat, if you will, like, write songs inspired by this new sort of music that I'm getting into now, he recalls. A year later, while on tour, Furnsss imploded, and Dyer returned to Connecticut; when he arrived home, Milly began. The Milly of Eternal
