goldenbloom is back with “HEating”
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.

Interstellar word-smith Spaceman beams in from somewhere in the cosmos with new single “Think Twice.” Somewhere between vaporwave, the darkly analog synth soundtracks of John Carpenter and abstract boom-bap the off-kilter slap was produced by The Suspect (Allegedly). Spaceman comes with rugged bugged rhymes and enlists fellow lyrical non-conformist Fatboi Sharif for a guest verse.
Speaking on the link-up for this joint, Spaceman relayed “I’ve known Fatboi for a long time. He and his homie (89 the Brainchild) were doing an underground radio show that supported my (then) crew back in the early 2010s. Interestingly enough he didn’t even rap back then. Fatboi makes it known that his style is definitely *not* horrorcore, which I respect, but being the pea-brain I am I still can’t help but associate him with that aesthetic. So, when I was thinking of who could help me sketch out the dark cerebral atmosphere of this record ,his was the name that jumped out.”
Listen to “Think Twice” ft. Fatboi Sharif:
“Think Twice” is part of self-proclaimed “Social Skills” series of singles from Spaceman to drop this year. The title of the series is a nod to the emcee’s willingness to step out of his comfort zone and collaborate with other rappers who he respects (considering Spaceman’s last three projects, which were strictly solo affairs).
The “Social Skills” series kicked off with recent single “Mumblecore” which featured his former Inner City Kids Collective cohorts ABGOHARD and Producer K3Mal (link below).
