Austin, TX’s Broken Gold has released a brand new glistening power pop ripper entitled “Fault.” The track is the final single to be released in advance of the band’s second full-length, Wild Eyes, out May 3rd via Austin hometown label Chicken Ranch Records.
On an album that is riven with reflection, “Fault” stands as a particularly striking testament to realization. Broken Gold singer/guitarist Ian MacDougall navigates the equally cursed and blessed nature of being a touring musician. Years spent playing stages in places you’ve always dreamed of, all the while watching your home life disintegrate as relationships are strained and an exhausting never-ending search is undertaken for part time jobs to fill the downtime.
MacDougall stated:
“It’s sort of a cautionary tale in a way. Be careful what you wish for. This one’s about crumbling under pressure, constantly feeling like you’re getting tested and that you’re always at odds with everything but at the heart of everything you have to admit that you yourself are a root of the problems you’re having.”
Stream “Fault” below, pre-order your copy of Wild Eyes on limited edition vinyl, and keep checking back for more from Broken Gold!
