New Music: Holden Laurence – Static

Cleveland, Ohio musician Holden Laurence released his third album, Fires Fading into Black, earlier this year. Over its seven songs he examines the human condition via a series of post-punk arrangements and highly literate and insightful lyrics, as on featured track Static.

Says Laurence about the song, whose pop-adjacent melody and poignant tones will appeal to fans of Interpol and Killers, “Static is an honest dissection of humanity – why we are the way that we are and if we’re capable of real change, framed in the context of love and relationships.”

Static and the Fires Fading into Black album can be downloaded on Bandcamp and streamed on Apple Music and Spotify. For other listening options, check out Holden Lawrence on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.
