Hidden Hospitals front man David Raymond says, ‘I’m stoked to partner with John / SPARTAN. We’re cut from similar cloth and share an optimistic view for the ever-changing landscape of modern music. This collaboration has already made a lot of smiles in a short amount of time – I’m confident it’ll only make more.’
Spartan Records has also repressed the band’s acclaimed debut album Surface Tension on limited edition vinyl which is now available for pre-order.
Places revealed to those seeking resuscitation, rejuvenation, decompression, atonement. Hidden Hospitals’ iconic mark captures the band’s foundational vision: obscured within the double “H,” is a universal symbol for aid, while their sound is CPR for rock and roll’s dying aesthetic.
The sound oscillates around modern rock and cult electronica, with lyrics balancing everyday dualities from the first line— ‘I lost my fingers when I found my fists.’ — to the last breath. Together, they create a sound and story that are a pulse of hope grounded in the reality of authentic relationships and experiences.
Hidden Hospitals’ newest album, Liars, is the manifestation of a singular place, point in time, and frame of mind. And while it is the band’s fourth release, singer Dave Raymond feels as though they’ve hit reset, focusing on the future without forgetting the past: ‘Close everything else, this is page one.’
