Goldenbloom’s latest release, “HEating”, not only delivers a powerful post-punk anthem but also holds a unique story behind its title. As the band reveals, the spelling of “HEating” is a clever portmanteau, combining the two words mentioned in the chorus: heating and eating. This creative fusion mirrors the thematic depth of the track itself.

Recorded at Brighton Electric over two intense days, “HEating” showcases goldenbloom’s return to the spotlight with a bang. Collaborating with Tigercub’s lead singer, Jamie Stephen Hall, and Grammy-nominated engineer Robin Schmidt for mastering, the track boasts a sonic punch that demands attention.

The inspiration behind “HEating” stems from the harsh reality faced by many households today. Jordan Walker explains that the song reflects the daunting choices people are forced to make between heating their homes or putting food on the table amidst rising utility prices and the overall cost of living crisis.

“HEating” encapsulates the anger and frustration of those dealing with the relentless pressures of financial instability. goldenbloom’s signature sound, characterized by intense vocals and driving instrumentation, turns the track into a cathartic anthem for the disillusioned.

For fans of post-punk music seeking substance and depth, “HEating” offers an unforgettable listening experience that lingers long after the final chord fades away.

After ten years of musical mischief, Naud has finally dropped anchor, or rather taken flight, with Un Gars Bian, an album that feels like a hug from an old friend and an impromptu dance party all at once. This high-energy, genre-mashing adventure blends alternative pop, electro, funk, and whatever else Naud felt like throwing into the mix. Think Marseille’s “joyous chaos” bottled up into soundwaves, bursting with playful unpredictability.

Leading things off is “Déjà Vu,” a sweet-and-sour love song about a romance that spanned across Europe but never quite took off, kind of like booking a first-class ticket to heartbreak. It’s got just the right mix of experimental vibes and catchy pop magic to make you groove while overthinking your past relationships.

The album title, Un Gars Bian, is a cheeky play on words, merging Marseille (city in France) slang for “seagull” (gabian) with “un gars bien” (a nice guy). It’s basically Naud in a nutshell: a free-spirited, big-hearted artist who wants to spread good vibes, reckless creativity, and a touch of joyful madness. And if that wasn’t enough, he’s also launched an Un Gars Bian t-shirt line, because what’s better than wearing your philosophy on your sleeve, literally? Grab yours here!

So, are you ready to embrace the joyful chaos? Un Gars Bian is the perfect excuse to dance like nobody’s watching and live life with a little more mischief. Let’s gooo!
