Hinds,VIVA HINDSThe fourth album from Spanish indie rockers Hinds opens with a song called “Hi, How AreYou,” and at the time they were writing it, best friends Carlotta Cosials and Ana Perrotewould’ve responded:Not great.“Hey, you ok?” Perrote sings to Cosials, who responds: “I’vebeen better tbh.” It’s an apt introduction toVIVA HINDS, an album Cosials and Perrote madeafter emerging from a creative rut that began when they released their last album,PrettiestCurse, in2020 and ended when their bassist and drummer decided to leave the band. In between,they split with their management team, lost touring revenue due to lockdowns, and were withouta label for the first time, but when Perrote and Cosials got together to writeVIVA HINDS, thosehardships dissolved.The girls had no one in their corner, but they had one another, and thatmutual trust (they call themselves “millionaires in friendship”) allowed them to create the mostaccomplished album of their careers, one that celebrates their shared history and reaffirms thatthis band is in it for the long haul.Effervescent since inception, Hinds took off instantly over a decade ago when, after spendingone too many nights out watching guy friends play guitar, Perrote andCosials decided that theywould learn the instrument, write songs, and start a band. Their scrappy ethic, infectious onstagepersonalities, and knack for writing hooks made their debut album, 2016’sLeave Me Alone, abuzzy hit, and they kept the momentum going withI Don’t Runin 2018. Since those formativeearly days, they’ve toured internationally and graced festival stages at Glastonbury, Coachella,Fuji Rock, and many more, in addition to opening for major acts like The Strokes, Coldplay, and5SOS. Through it all, they nurtured the intense bond that brought them together in the first place.“We started the band because we are so safe and comfortable with each other. Our relationship isunbreakable,” Cosials says. “This connection between us hasn’t changed since the verybeginning. We still finish each other’s ideas, laugh at each other’s jokes and rhyme each other’slines. Maintaining that enthusiasm for music and for Hinds through the years may seemextremely difficult to find, but it’s something that only can happen with your very best friend.”It’s been four years sinceHindsreleasedPrettiest Curse, the longest gap they’ve taken betweenalbums, and in that time frame, thegirlstendedthejoyful spiritthat made them want to start abandwith help from a few critical collaborators and friends. Initially, the girls shared theirdemos with Sean Silverman (Beach Weather) on a trip to Los Angeles, who also showed them apedal effect they’d never used before, one that would go on to influence the sonic landscape ofVIVA HINDS.The first song they wrote for the record, the hypnotic “Boom Boom Back,”features Beck, who they met by chance at a film screeningon that same trip to LA. Furthercollaborators included Hinds’ close friend Grian Chatten of FontainesD.C., who sings on thesimmering post-punk inspired stand-out track “Stranger.”
