Madrid-based band Hinds have announced a new album, VIVA HINDS, and shared a new song from it, “Boom Boom Back,” featuring Beck. They have also announced some North American tour dates. VIVA HINDS also includes Grian Chatten by Fontaines DC and will be released on September 6 via Lucky Number. Check out the 'Boom Boom Back' video below, followed by the tracklist and album art, as well as tour dates.
VIVA HINDS features “Coffee,” a new song the band shared in February. VIVA HINDS is the band's first album since becoming a duo again. Hinds was formed by co-singers and co-guitarists Carlotta Cosials and Ana Perrote in 2011, but for most of their career they have been a four-piece. Ade Martin and Amber Grimbergen left the band in 2022, returning them to a duo.
Pete Robertson (The Vaccines, beabadoobee) produced the album, which was mixed by Caesar Edmunds (The Killers, Wet Leg) and engineered by Tom Roach. Recorded in rural France.
“This is not a rational album, this is made with feelings, in no particular order,” Cosials says in a press release. “We never sat down to think about what we should write, we sat down to write about what we were going through. We didn't go for a 'new look', we didn't want to pretend to be mature or come across as a more sophisticated band. To me it's coherent, but it's not a fairy tale or an intelligent narrative. It's driven by the heart.”
On keeping the band going despite line-up changes and other challenges (the pandemic, no record label), Cosials says, “We started the band because we're so safe and comfortable with each other. Our relationship is unbreakable. This relationship between us has not changed since the beginning. We still finish each other's ideas, laugh at each other's jokes, and rhyme each other's lines. Maintaining that enthusiasm for music and Hinds over the years can seem extremely difficult to find, but it's something that can only happen with your best friend.”
Hinds' latest album, The most beautiful curse, released in 2020. Read our interview with the band about it.
