Rolling Blackouts C.F. - Hope Downs

NEW  VINYL LP ON SUB POP 2018

180 GRAM VINYL.

The Aussie rock quartet’s new single “Talking Straight” was recorded in a house in the middle of the Northern New South Wales bush, like “Mainland” before it. As a press release notes, the song “hits hard with its driving rhythm and melodic, interweaving guitars, while reflecting on the loneliness of being a small person in the big universe.”

“The concept came about when I heard someone talking about the possibility of us, humans, being alone in the universe, and how sad that would be,” singer, songwriter and guitarist Joe White said of “Talking Straight,” adding, “The idea in this song is that we might be lonely, but we could be lonely together.”
