It’s been over two years since Hinds released their breakout debut album Leave Me Alone, their sophomore release I Don’t Run on Lucky Number showcases a bigger, better, faster, funnier, more dexterous Hinds.
Co-produced by Hinds and Gordon Raphael (The Strokes, Regina Spektor), and mixed by Shawn Everett (Alabama Shakes, Perfume Genius, The War On Drugs, John Legend), I Don’t Run is the product of a band fighting for their place, a band unwilling to rely upon their successes, a band who have just begun to prove themselves, and a band who plays hard but works even harder. With this second LP they continue their quest to own their narrative – one of sisters doing it for themselves. “We loved making this album,” says Ana Perrote,“We knew what we wanted and we have what we wanted. This is a new start for us and we’re fucking ready.”
Watch the new video for ‘Finally Floating’ below.
Hinds released their highly anticipated new album I Don’t Run and in celebration share the video for ‘Finally Floating.’ Perhaps the most bold and confident we’ve heard Hinds yet, ‘Finally Floating’ revolves around a dance floor-ready beat as Carlotta Cosials and Ana Perrote exchange vocals like duelling bulls. “I’m feeling great ’till I’m laying in bed and all these random melodies sound again,” they cry while likening their experience to being trapped in suspended reality. The music video for ‘Finally Floating,’ was directed by Wiissa (The Strokes, Phoenix, Kali Uchis, Karen O) and features a Hinds bike tour around their hometown of Madrid.
Hinds on ‘Finally Floating’ video: “maybe you know, maybe you don’t know, but we’ve been born and raised in Madrid and she’s definitely the best city of the world. so for this second album it’s was a must to have a music video showing a little bit of the streets, and Wiisa came out with the idea of the bikes and we loved it. Ana didn’t know how to ride one so she had to practice with her roommate the day before shooting lol. i love the way this video is more tranquile than the others, giving a more chilled vibe for such a apotheosic song.”
Wiissa on ‘Finally Floating’ video: “We’ve been wanting to work with Hinds for a very long time, and the fact that we got to shoot this in their hometown, Madrid, made it even better! For the video, we wanted to capture Hinds’ amazing dynamic, and, more importantly, their friendship — they have such a sweet and genuine friendship, which you really feel when you meet them. We wanted to show their hometown, and were inspired by a few 70s films, in which teens carelessly spend their days exploring the city on bikes or mopeds.”
