Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste
The Golden Dregs (aka London singer/songwriter Benjamin Woods) have shared a new single “Just Another Rock,” exclusively via Paste. It’s taken from their sophomore album Hope Is For The Hopeless, out on Sept. 27 and also featuring the singles “Nobody Ever Got Rich” and “The Queen of Clubs.” Hope Is For The Hopeless follows their 2018 debut album Lafayette.
“Just Another Rock” is underpinned by Woods’ weighty baritone, divulging poetic lines about romantic desire and personal shortcomings. With funky keyboard interludes, a measured bassline and cascading guitars, it has the musical feel of a slinky, late-night saunter and the lyrical sentiment of a defeated shrug.
