Editor's info:
Counter weights dance together, the fulcrum remains perpetually shifty. Unstable. A quicksilver-like power dynamic: the type of tension that is forever unresolved and continuously changes form. Contorted, yet magical. With their fourth full-length record, titled Plode, Hely turn their attention after the album Borderland (RRR 2018) to the beauty and the mechanics of a relationship defined by the latent potential of its own undoing.

While we were working on this record, neither one of us was dealing with any relationship problems. However, as far as this project is concerned, things got pretty complicated between us. There was a lot of movement, a lot of heavy discussions. We’re very different! From temperament to how we approach music; what our individual priorities are. So, in a sense, this body of work is about us looking at these dynamics and channelling these energies into our music. But, it’s also about learning to accept each other for who we are, and being able to see the beauty in the friction.

The five songs that make up this release are a culmination of ideas and processes that the duo have been methodically refining since the inception. In fact, the departure point for every composition was a song from an earlier record –a musical idea that could still be refined or pushed to a new extreme. In Lucca’s own words: “we thought that, at this point, it makes more sense for us to go deeper with our ideas than to search for new ones.” So, for the duration of the two years leading up to the recording session, they met at their rehearsal space regularly to do just that. And, on many an occasion, they would spend an entire day exploring the inner “world” of a single piece. Eventually, it even became a thing to play each song for the duration of 45 minutes at a time, just to experience where it could go, what other possibilities it could offer.
