Divorce recently shared “Hangman”, the final single to be taken from the band’s forthcoming debut album Drive to Goldenhammer ahead of its release on March 7th via Gravity/Capitol. The band will be playing a run of UK dates behind the LP, starting March 6th in Brighton, England.

Commenting on the new single, co-vocalist and guitarist Felix Mackenzie-Barrow says:

“I wrote Hangman late one night, freezing in my mouldy bedroom after a long shift as a support worker; the job I was doing at the time. The lyrics and chords and structure came out complete in about twenty minutes, I had stolen Tiger’s Ominchord for it, which is not an instrument I would usually use for writing. The job I was doing necessitated a high level of emotional control, which was not something I had experienced before and so writing about the work and allowing my subconscious to flow freely helped me to gain some perspective. I listened to it on the way back to work the following morning over and over and I felt like I’d done a good one. I only worked in that job for about six months, but it was simultaneously the hardest and most rewarding work I’ve ever done. The admiration I have for the people I worked with and the people who choose that career is immense. The world of social care is hidden in a society that likes to pretend it doesn’t exist, but it is vital and deserves much more focus and investment than it currently receives.”
