Showalter additionally mixed and mastered the album, with Jarrett Pryzgoda, completed in 78 hours &#8211; from recording to end &#8211; at Kiwi Audio. &#8216;Helix Pattern Blues&#8217; is set for release on December 7.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Latest release from the EP, &#8216;BMX&#8217;, is a psych style, guitar-led track with some ethereal feedback rhythms, particularly towards the middle of the song. It&#8217;s vaguely creepy; a gradual layering of guitars over top of a mesmerising drum line it sends chills down the spine. But looking a bit more deeply into it, there&#8217;s a nostalgic element to it as well: the lyrics are pulled out slowly, each syllable treated with as much importance as every other one. Thoughts come to mind of a more pure, more gentle time, where young people dreamed of owning the latest BMX bike, and riding it all day on those long hot summers we all seem to remember but probably didn&#8217;t really exist.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can find out more about Hemhora And The Glass Band online on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hemhora.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official website<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/hemhora.bandcamp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bandcamp<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hemhora\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/hemhora\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> pages.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Hemhora and the Glass Band &quot;BMX&quot; by Team Clermont\" width=\"640\" height=\"400\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?visual=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F525193236&#038;show_artwork=true&#038;maxheight=960&#038;maxwidth=640\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coming out of Batavia, Illinois, Hemhora And The Glass Band are a band project, comprising musicians who are still active members of other bands.
