As Divorce approach the release of their debut album Goldenhammer, out March 7th 2025 via Gravity / Capitol, the band have unveiled the record's final taster, Hangman. Commenting on the new single, co-vocalist and guitarist Felix Mackenzie-Barrow says: "I wrote Hangman late one night, freezing in my mouldy bedroom after a long shift as a support worker; the job I was doing at the time. The lyrics and chords and structure came out complete in about twenty minutes, I had stolen Tiger's Ominchord for it, which is not an instrument I would usually use for writing. The job I was doing necessitated a high level of emotional control, which was not something I had experienced before and so writing about the work and allowing my subconscious to flow freely helped me to gain some perspective. I listened to it on the way back to work the following morning over and over and I felt like I'd done a good one. I only worked in that job for about six months, but it was simultaneously the hardest and most rewarding work I've ever done. The admiration I have for the people I worked with and the people who choose that career is immense. The world of social care is hidden in a society that likes to pretend it doesn't exist, but it is vital and deserves much more focus and investment than it currently receives." Take a listen to the catchy number below.
