Hinds cover of Los Nastys "Hologram" is the first new material we've heard from the awesome foursome since the release of their underrated debut Leave Me Alone.
A short version of the song was first performed by the group when they went by the name of Deers some three years ago, but now we have an official recorded cover of the Spanish track, a song they tribute to the beginning of Hinds' success.
It's a delightful indie-rock number that sounds like a song Hinds could have written themselves. Below is a message the band posted on their SoundCloud page in relation to what the song means to them;
"first of all, you're gonna notice this song is in spanish (OMG!)
second of all, you have to know we didn’t write it (OMFG!!!)
so with these things you would probably wonder what made us think it's a good idea to record this song and release it??
are hinds going crazy and they don't like their own songs already?!
NOOOOOOO! neveeerrr!!!!
the thing is this song is from Los Nastys,
the thing is that covering this song was the beginning of this band (or at least one of them, 'cause our beginnings are v confusing), it was the first thing we played after a break of almost 2 years..and covering songs from bands you love used to be a great tradition that people dont do that much anymore.
but the real thing is that we think Los Nastys are the best band in the world. since ever and forever.
and that all we have to say about this."
