Boston-based indie folk outfit Hallelujah The Hills have returned with the release of ‘Fake Flowers at Sunset’, a slow burning, soaring new rock ballad that charms throughout.
A soft and very slowly building intro forces its listener to pay attention and stick with it as ‘Fake Flowers at Sunset’ steadily turns into a soaring and theatrical, soulful alternative folk pop release with grand musical elements and a soundscape that simply sweeps you off your feet. Once a pair of vocal harmonies get introduced we are well and truly swayed, Hallelujah The Hills knows how to craft a piece of contemporary music that blends genres and hooks through curiosity.
This new single is the latest taken from their upcoming magnus opus ‘DECK’, which is due for release this June, courtesy of Discrete Pageantry Records and Best Brother Records. This latest introduction to the upcoming album is a stunning piece of musical storytelling that expands as it grows and charms as it flows, genre-defying and bound to leave a mark on its listeners. The track comes with a certain mystery, wanders, dives and startles as its rhythms and compositions change and make their way through a mystical musical landscape.
‘Fake Flowers at Sunset’ is a folk song with a disco beat, “subverting the notion that nature serves as an apt metaphor for human relationships. It examines love’s intensity with both longing and hesitation.” Taken from ‘DECK’, an ambitious collection of four LPs, each representing a suit of a deck of cards, the single will bring new fans to the world of Hallelujah The Hills.
