Arizona-based alternative rockers Eerie Weather are back with their latest release, “Leech,” a mesmerizing dive into the darker, more atmospheric side of alt-rock. Known for their mix of emotionally charged lyrics and haunting soundscapes, Eerie Weather delivers a sonic experience that’s raw, intense, and unmistakably their own. Fronted by Daimen Clark, formerly of Beyond Unbroken, the band brings together an impressive roster of talent: Jason Draper (Dead Code), Tony Perry (Rilen’Out!), Ty Engle (North, Unforgivable), and Stephen Majalca (Wyrmhaven, Anarbor, Coma Prevail, and Cons), each adding unique depth to the band’s sound.
“Leech” immediately grabs the listener with its fast-paced riffs and powerful opening verse, blending melodic elements with a hard-hitting edge that shows why Eerie Weather stands out in today’s alt-rock landscape. The intro is a punchy, adrenaline-fueled moment that propels listeners into the heart of the song, setting the tone for a track that’s as introspective as it is energetic. As the verses unfold, the song’s arrangement shifts, keeping the experience fresh and engaging—a true testament to Eerie Weather’s signature style of dynamic and evolving compositions.
The chorus of “Leech” is undeniably memorable, offering a melodic hook that fans will find both catchy and powerful. The track’s blend of gritty guitar work, shadowy basslines, and hypnotic rhythm creates an evocative mood that echoes the sound of early 2000s post-punk revival bands while still maintaining a modern twist. Eerie Weather’s influences—bands like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Nirvana, and The Misfits—shine through, yet “Leech” feels contemporary, blending nostalgic sounds with an edge that’s unmistakably new.

Since their debut cover of Misfits’ “Hybrid Moments” in 2020, Eerie Weather has steadily gained momentum, releasing well-received singles like “I’m in Trouble,” “All Night,” and “Loner.” Their 2023 independent EP, Pale Flowers, captured fans and critics alike, cementing the band as one of the most interesting acts in the alternative rock scene. With each release, the band has shown a remarkable ability to evolve and expand their sound, and “Leech” is no exception.
Eerie Weather’s music often explores deep, sometimes darker emotional themes, as seen in their earlier 2023 single, “Cuticles,” which delved into mental health struggles. “Leech” follows suit, pairing introspective lyrics with a brooding, immersive soundscape that pulls listeners in and doesn’t let go. From Daimen Clark’s commanding vocals to the hypnotic pulse of the rhythm section, every element in “Leech” serves to create an atmospheric and visceral experience that is both relatable and powerful.
