Speaking of the track, vocalist and guitarist Ana Veria said:

“The song was written about my balancing act between how I think and how I feel. We did multiple takes showing apathy, happiness, anger and erratic behaviour to show you the polarising experience inside my head. It chops and changes, is sometimes uncontrollable, confusing and can be very isolating. I can’t explain it, but I have an assurance in some kind of silver lining that it’ll make sense soon.”

Veria went on to stress the importance of the DIY aspect of the track, which was recorded in the bedroom of drummer, Nick Zammit.

“We spent zero dollars putting together our music video for Purple & Green, but you can probably tell. So we capitalised on the lo-fi factor, channelling an old school DIY video feel and visual effects you used to find on Windows Movie Maker.”

To celebrate the impending release, Hurst have already kicked off a string of NSW based shows. The dates will run until November, with the next scheduled for this Sunday at The Lansdowne Hotel in Chippendale.

Momentum has been building for the mosh inducing four piece since their appearance on Triple J’s Home & Hosed last week.

Hurst is Ana Veria on vocals and guitar, Jake Bisognin on guitar, Ben Zamor on Bass and Nick Zammit on drums.
