As Long As Your Eyes Are Wide is the fifth studio album from Canadian indie-rock band Said the Whale. It was released on March 31, 2017.[1] The album marks the band's first release as a trio following the departure of bassist Nathan Shaw. In late 2016, the band announced the pending release of the album, stating that it would be a return to form on how the band used to make music.[2] The album received generally favorable reviews, with Atwood Magazine stating that the band had captured moments of "both raw, harrowing emotion and sheer delight".[3] Despite featuring heavier subject matter than previous records, the band was praised for the album's overall hopeful message.[4]
