They Might Be Giants Release ‘Eyeball’ EP

by Glenn Sargeant | Jan 19, 2026

oday, alternative rock legends They Might Be Giants return with the release of their new project, the Eyeball EP, on all streamers and in the TMBG download store. The EP features the title track “Eyeball,” alongside “The Glamour of Rock,” and the instrumental “Peggy Guggenheim,” which spotlights the horn section blasting off in full throttle – cinematic enough to score a movie chase scene. Rounding out the project is a reimagining of “Eyeball” from remixers The Elegant Too.

This blast from the present is just a warm-up round for They Might Be Giants’ brand new, all-banger album coming this spring.

John Linnell says, “Our favorite way of making albums is to write and record too many songs and then arrange the ones that work together as an album. We always have a bunch of good tracks left over to make an EP. I’m sure there’s some exact equivalent process that goes on in the kitchen of a fancy restaurant, but I’m just guessing here. Anyway, these are the ‘amuse-bouche’ or perhaps ‘amuse-oreille’ tracks that we hope will be an enticing appetizer before the next album emerges from the oven.”
