Still sounding like a thunderous post-punk avalanche descending the mountain of confusion, or a well-aimed punch in the gut, ‘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 bassist/vocalist, Wim. But a band like Golden Hours never shies away from these things: they lean into it and welcome those ghostly appearances with open arms and just try to out-fuzz the buzz with layers of noise and strong melodic elements that cut through like a knife.

With two lead singers, Hákon and Wim, taking on an equal amount of titles – divided up by odd and even track numbers, respectively – the album touches on topics widespread but delivered with the unity of Siamese twins sharing the same lungs and vocal range.

As for instrumentation, ‘Beyond Wires’ sees the band suitably wired up: two lead guitars (Hakon and Rodrigo) are intertwined and coated in fuzz and noise, embracing the rhythm section (drums Tobias, bass Wim) like an octopus extending its tentacles deep into the listener’s ear. A rhythm section gracefully tight, yet occasionally flaring up like firecrackers randomly thrown at you from close range.
