Today, Vapors of Morphine have shared the saxophone-laced, spellbinding “Irene,” the first single to be released from their upcoming album, Fear & Fantasy, which is due September 24th on Schnitzel Records. Vapors of Morphine performs the music of “low rock” pioneers Morphine, utilizing the ethereal, hypnotic and expansive sounds popularized by the group in the nineties. Speaking on the origins of “Irene,” the band’s Jeremy Lyons noted “Although it’s performed with a basic Morphine-style arrangement – slide-bass, sax, drums and vocals – to me, this song is reminiscent of late 50’s/early 60’s pop music. It’s like bubble gum pop grew up, developed a drinking problem, got left at the altar, and went to bed.”
