hospital gown

about

Hospital Gown is the multifaceted vision of Dallas, TX songwriter/producer Rich Loren Balling (The Sound of Animals Fighting, Pyramids), who emerged from a long period of debilitating anxiety to craft a cathartic narrative traversing themes of nostalgia, regret, depression, fatherhood, human idiosyncrasy, and gender normality, delivered through a penchant for pop, classic screamo, and electronic musics. Always almost tearing from the sonic fabric but never quite, the 14 songs on “Diamond Life 2” take taut strands of programmed drum beats, trance synths, and midwest emo guitars, and weave them into a glitching tapestry that appeals to even the most selective electronic pop, indie pop, and hyper pop enthusiasts, a nuanced undertaking akin to gluing together shards of shattered American Football, Postal Service, Orchid, and 100 Gecs records. Mixed by Knife Girl, and Daniela Rivera (Rihanna, Selena Gomez), and mastered at Metropolis London by Stuart Hawkes (Charli XCX, Stormzy).
