Golden Hours have released their new album Beyond Wires via Fuzz Club Records. To celebrate the album’s arrival, the band have released a video for “The Same Thing,” the track is the follow-up to following earlier singles “The Letter”, “Heading For The Moon’, and ‘Arctic Desert’.

Golden Hours are based between Berlin and Brussels, and include Hákon Aõalsteinsson, Wim Janssens, Tobias Humble and Rodrigo Fuentealba Palavacino, the members have been of Gang Of Four, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Tricky, The Fuzztones and more.

Beyond Wires was knit together in-between the tours and other obligations of its four members, written and recorded in rehearsal rooms in Berlin and an old mansion in Brussels. “The latter definitely put its stamp on the record with its noisy electric static bleeding into every song”, says Wim.

On the release week single ‘The Same Thing’, Wim says: “The Same Thing leans heavily on Tobias deadpan drum groove and shows the band in full repetitive kraut modus. The song was the last one added to the long-list for the album. When all tracks were recorded, the question was asked: did anyone still have any gems hidden up their sleeves? Hakon started playing this guitar riff, and we all instantly locked in, and within 15 minutes, a song structure appeared. After 2 takes, the basic track was nailed. The song took a slight turn when vocals and extra layers were added in post-production, away from the obvious and into more atmospheric realms, in sync with the overall sound of the album.”

“The song is about the inevitable that comes for you, mostly in moments when you let your guard down. Good things, bad things…The ground beneath your feet can disappear in an instant. It’s the stuff you can never prepare for unless you want to live your life in fear, hiding in a bunker somewhere in a desert where the floods can’t reach you. And it hardly ever happens to you alone, even when no one else gets hit, there’s always collateral damage, stuff that pops up and rears its ugly head years after the avalanche turned your world upside down. It’s a cleansing ritual at best if you’re able to get from under the snow. You can’t keep an eye on everything all the time, and you probably won’t see or hear it coming anyway, but as Tom Waits so beautifully put it:“We’re all gonna be just dirt in the ground”, so no need to go check on your car that fell into that sinking hole before your time is up.”
