OH HIROSHIMA – Wild Iris
Emerging from the Swedish post-rock underbrush, OH HIROSHIMA delivers “Wild Iris,” a track that boldly awakens listeners from the slumber of everyday life. This lead single from their fifth album, “All Things Shining,” showcases the band’s journey from a humble DIY project to post-rock virtuosos, capable of crafting sonic landscapes that blend shoegaze, electronica, and indie-rock with a deft hand. The duo, Leif Eliasson and the Hemström brothers, distill their expansive sound to its essence, marrying thunderous instrumentals with contemplative lyrics. “Wild Iris” serves as a battle cry against complacency, urging listeners to rediscover the world’s inherent wonder amidst a generation marked by disillusionment. Through this latest work, OH HIROSHIMA navigates the dichotomy of growing older and the quest for meaning, proving that their musical odyssey is far from over and still capable of striking lightning.
