In January, The Laughing Chimes released Whispers In The Speech Machine,  an album steeped in the American Gothic atmosphere of their southeast Ohio surroundings. Now, wrapped in these newly claimed signature foggy echoes of the rural Midwest, the band delivers a reimagined version of album highlight "High Beams." Accompanied by the grainy thuds of droning drum machines and ghostly guitar swells, the "Dead End Mix" sees The Laughing Chimes wandering twisted country roads at night, inviting listeners to do the same. Shards of uplifting melody spiral upwards through the dark, foreboding vibe - a contrast that animates the band's current sound.
