Hammock
Departure Songs
Available Now

If anyone needs a subject for a case study of a band doing things right, let Hammock be your first candidate. In promotion of their new double-LP Departure Songs they have released a video trailer, a free download, a preview stream and a gorgeous music video. The actual release is available in digital, physical and extra special limited edition formats. AND they also managed to create a lush post-rock / shoegaze / instrumental / ambient collection of songs that is enjoyable to listen to. This isn’t even my preferred genre and I am quite keen to put this one on loop.

Today marks the official release of the full-length album from The Kingston Springs. They’ve worked hard, hit the road and stayed steady in their commitment to being a successful rock band – and seem to be achieving it. It’s actually quite a boast worthy story if you’re open to it. The album is actually full of top notch slower tunes – Lover, Kinda Shaken, etc – mixed in amongst the upbeat rockers; a quality surprise to me upon listening.
