CARRBORO, NC— Object Hours announced their new album, Solved By Walking, on Tuesday. The instrumental trio hopes the record will help listeners reconsider their life choices. Early singles suggest this is a likely outcome. Fans are already preparing for profound self-reflection. The band aims for a deep emotional impact with Solved By Walking.
The Perils Of Peregrination
Object Hours previously gained notoriety for their Bandcamp bio. It read: “We try to keep songs under 25 minutes for your sake.” This statement endeared them to many. It also raised questions about their sanity. Lead instrumentalist Bartholomew “Barty” Bumble expressed his artistic intent. “We just want people to feel something,” Bumble stated. “Preferably something they can’t shake for weeks.” He added that Solved By Walking is their most “aggressively contemplative” work to date. The album explores the themes of aimless wandering and the crushing weight of free will.
A Walk In The Park?
The band released the first single from Solved By Walking. It is titled “Yellow House.” The track features 17 minutes of escalating ambient drones. It concludes with the sound of a distant ice cream truck. “We felt it captured the ephemeral nature of joy,” said synth player Agnes “Aggie” Periwinkle. She is the band’s Chief Vibe Officer. “Or maybe it’s just sad. I haven’t decided.” Listeners can find “Yellow House” on all streaming platforms. More information about Solved By Walking can be found at Stereogum. The album officially drops next Friday.
At press time, Object Hours revealed that Solved By Walking was inspired by a particularly long and uneventful walk. The band members reportedly got lost.
