Los Angeles based rock band, Them Guns release new single ‘Acid Plane’ on 3rd February, through from Golden Robot Records.
The band, made up of lead vocalist and guitarist Navarone Garibaldi, keyboardist/drummer Kyle Hamood and bassist Chuck Holiday, are no strangers to the studio and stage having released two previous singles from their upcoming second album, ‘Shot in the Dark’ and ‘Dark Side.‘
‘Acid Plane’ is a song about getting on a flight right before a nuclear disaster with the only survivors being those who were in the skies at the time of the eruption. When they make it to their destination, they arrive at a completely different existence from the one they left. The song was written by Garibaldi and Hamood.
Garibaldi is no stranger to the limelight as the son of Priscilla Presley, and half-brother to the recently deceased Lisa Marie Presley, but he has forged his own way through his music. He and Garibaldi and Hamood met as toddlers at a pool in Hawaii. Twenty years later, at a chance meeting, the became bandmates and quickly put their mark on their own unique style of music, with Holiday rounding out the trio.
Them Guns is a synth rock band with dance evoking progressive sounds. Forming pre-covid, the connection between the band members runs deep. Chance happenings frequently occur amongst these guys, such as Garibaldi having an idea one night when lyrics came to him in a dream for a song. The same night he wrote them down, Hamood had an idea for a melody to a song. Neither knew the other’s idea until the following day when mentioned on the phone. Hamood and Holiday played the melody to Garibaldi’s lyrics, and the music fitted perfectly with the words.
Whether coincidence or deeper connection, they continue to create a variety of ever evolving and alluringly progressive sounds. Their eclectic style, although completely unique in their own right, can be deemed a blend of influences from sounds like LCD Sound System, Chemical Brothers, Prodigy, Tool, Faith No More, Ghost, Slipknot and Deadsy.
