Last week, David Kilgour & the Heavy Eights announced details of their new studio album End Times Undone, out August 5. Bio & photos can be found here.
The song abounds with electric 12-string arpeggios and gauzy vocal harmonies, but "Comin’ On” isn’t a Byrds derivative—it sounds more in tune with the dreamy power-pop of the C86 sound born in Great Britain during the late 1980s. —Premiere Guitar
