Over the course of two well-received albums and numerous singles and compilation appearances, Jeanines have captured the ears of discerning listeners with a sound that recalls a diverse swathe of pop history, from 60s folk-pop and girl-group tunes to 80s DIY pop to solid gold 90s touchstones like The Aislers Set, The Cat's Miaow and the post-Black Tambourine bands of Pam Berry.

Now they're back with their first new tunes since 2022's "Don't Wait For A Sign" and the hits just keep on coming. "Each Day" is moody jangler that delivers melodic and emotional heft that belies its brief 1:43 length. Destined for 1,000 indiepop mixtapes, it's exactly the kind of song that the 7" was invented for. "What The Echoes Say" is a strummy delight, showcasing Alicia Jeanine's lovely vocal harmonies to maximum effect. "Tilt In Your Eye" wraps up this ace single -- it was Jeanines' contribution to Where It's At Is Where You Are's ace 2019 compilation "The Moon And Back" and appears here on vinyl for the first time.

/// Lyrics:

If tomorrow never comes, if none of it was real
Just the dreams of angels, and the devil's deals
If nobody begins to sing another prayer
A wild dog howling something only hearts can hear
If the clouds are coming over, and the storm is rolling in
I still meant what I told you, I'd do it all again

If tomorrow never comes, if this was just a test
A marble in the ether, a temporary fix
If nothing ever happens, if nobody awakes
To kiss another lover, to love so hard it hurts
If the curtain's really closing, and the crowd begins to stand
I still meant what I told you, I'd do it all again

If we don't ever make it, if we never become
Something to remember, a legendary love
If everything is stardust, and we burn and disappear
No one leaning toward us, struggling to hear
And if none of it is lasting, and if nobody believes
In real understanding, forgiveness and release
And if we don't ever find it, a truth so briefly held
What's the use of kindness, in such an ugly world?
What's the use of laughing, at such an awful hour?
What's the use of asking god for something more?
Maybe in this moment, everything is kept
Gilded light and darkness, loving and regret
The battle and the brake lights, the flashing of a hand
Reaching with a jackknife, or comforting a friend
Then I guess that it's alright if I don't know how it ends
The battle is a good fight and I'd do it all again
