Jim Dinan
Jim Dinan also records under the name Beyond the Eyes of Men. Beyond the Eyes of Men's sound is best described as minimal with dark introspective vocals and haunting dissonance wrapped in the sonic texture of post punk, acoustic and ambient music. Lyrically, there are myriad experiences pushing and pulling in continuous conflict with desire.
