We’ve all been there before—caught at a crossroads and unable to see things through the way they’re supposed to be. Gold Class filter that familiar aspect of the human condition through tightly wound post-punk on “Furlong,” the latest single from their debut album It’s You. Here’s what frontman Adam Curley had to say about it:
Lyrically, the song kind of formed around the line “bad from the neck down”, which I carried around in my head for a while while we were writing it. It’s about always feeling as if you have to improve yourself, about misguided good intentions—having them and then fucking them up because you can’t stick to them. We didn’t really know what to make of it when we wrote it, or where it fit in the set. It’s a bit of an island, that song. People always comment on it at shows, and then ask if it’s about ‘Terminator 2’.
It’s You is due out September 4th through felte (US/UK) and Spunk Records (AUS/NZ). Pre-order a vinyl copy here, and check out today’s #selftitledpremiere alongside the LP’s other official leaks…
