AltarTV caught up with Barely Blind to get an explanation behind their song “Can’t Expect” as well as an unplugged and unrehearsed live studio recording!

Barely Blind is known for their high-energy, slinky melodic post-pop-punk style. But with guitars unplugged and drums removed, they pack an equally intense punch. Here, they’re dimming the lights in the studio for a barebones attack of “Can’t Expect,” from their ‘Wilder Child Of A Thousand Suns’ album. It’s a beautiful showcase for the duo’s nimble voices and layered guitars, not to mention a testament to their considerable talents as composers and musicians.

Happy birthday (yesterday) to our friend Canaan Davis! He used to play guitar and sing in Barely Blind during The Way We Operate EP years. I used to think he was from Oregon.Photo circa 2007.
