Hookworms stream new single "On Leaving"

16 September 2014, 18:43 | Written by Laurence Day

"On Leaving" is to be released 10 November, as is Hookworms' second full-length The Hum.

SS, guitarist, explains the intentions behind The Hum:

“We were writing Pearl Mystic to an audience in the same way your diary has an audience. It’s written to one but if no one ever reads it that’s not a big deal. This time round though we knew we had a really clear audience, so The Hum is really about different freedoms and constraints – with Pearl Mystic the possibilities were almost too vast, this time around we had a much clearer idea of what the record should be like and that became freeing because we didn’t need to worry about its direction so much.”

In regards to upcoming single "On Leaving", bassist MB describes it as the band's attempt at "a really minimal two-note rager".

Check out the track below.

Both "On Leaving" and The Hum are released 10 November on Weird World.
