The Golden Hum, ranges from dense, trippy rockers in intricately textered ballads, with unexpected twists, soaring choruses and a mysterious sensual quality.
The Golden Hum, Remy Zero’s first release in three years, finds the band in control of its vision, reigning in its ambitions and creating an album of richly textured rock songs. While the band are often compared to R.E.M. and Radiohead, a more appropriate comparison now would be David Bowie. Finding inspiration in the early hook-filled albums like Hunky Dory and the musical experimentation of the “Berlin” albums (Low, Lodger and Heroes), Remy Zero have crafted an album that displays the best elements of glam-rock. Eschewing the feather boas and silly pretence that often passes for glam, The Golden Hum is filled with big riffs, subtle hooks and soaring vocals. And like the best rock bands, Remy Zero revels in the music’s contradictions: dark and uplifting, cynical and hopeful. –Adam Silverman
