Fingers of the Sun’s new release, Sleepy EP, is a collection of songs designed specifically to soundtrack an activity that — unless you’re Keith Richards — we all do. Confining the songwriting to such an ultra-specific subject limits the scope of the songs; gone are the hook-drenched rockers heard on Fingers’ self-titled debut. Yet the psychedelic guitar swirls of “Close Your Eyes” and the warm groove of “Send Yourself to Sleep” will surely give your dreams a fashionable, romantic edge. But tread cautiously with the 27-minute closer, “Careful With Those Sleeping Pills Percy,” which delivers a tense, David Lynch-style anxiety that could make your slumber ominous indeed.
