Alt-rock revivalists Pilots have landed with their most confident statement yet, the 10-track album Eyes On The Horizon, a thunderous return from the Ashtead-born band that channels the heart of Britpop and the edge of modern indie-rock. The album follows five strong singles, each packed with anthemic hooks and emotional grit, setting the tone for a record that doesn’t let up.
From the infectious energy of Is That What You Want to the cathartic release in Love’s Made A Fool, Pilots strike a rare balance, nostalgia meets now. The choruses are massive, the guitars shimmer and roar, and the lyrics cut straight to the core. Every track feels tailored for the live stage, which the band proved with their explosive comeback show at London’s Water Rats, reclaiming their space with undeniable swagger.
Influences from Oasis, The Verve, and BRMC are worn proudly, but Pilots bring their own fresh urgency to the mix. There’s a cinematic sweep to Eyes On The Horizon, making it feel less like a second album and more like a bold mission statement. With this release, Pilots aren't just riding a wave, they’re steering it. Eyes On The Horizon is proof that British alt-rock has plenty of fuel left in the tank.
