‘Golden’ is the new single from Glasgow-based twin-sibling duo Cloth. The track defines what a Cloth track should be, with interesting guitar interplay and droning, synth-bathed textures contrasting pop experimentation; there’s something very Talking Heads about this track, especially when that powerful hi-hat-driven groove takes hold in the chorus. They explain: “The song deals with the tough breakdown of a relationship, and the feeling of that loss being so difficult to reconcile with you’d rather have never fallen in love at all. There’s a line in the song, ‘that scar on my wall, where all of those photographs remembered us falling” which came from me staring at my bedroom wall and seeing the faint outlines - the ‘scars’ - of where photos of really meaningful memories used to be stuck on.” Cloth have announced their new album, Pink Silence, which drops on April 25th, 2025, via Rock Action. -Dan Peeke
