The jangle quartet’s second album is out now

The band released ‘Golden Doubt’ last Friday (June 11), following a slate of singles that included ‘Videostores’, ‘Gutters Of Love’, ‘Hold You Back’ and ‘Chinese Medicine’.

The LP was highlighted as one of NME’s top picks for June, with writer Alex Gallagher saying: “‘Golden Doubt’ is more a carrying of the torch than an exercise in nostalgia – these songs are warm, inventive and reward repeat listens, the band’s idiosyncrasies shining bright throughout.”

In a press release, frontman Sam Nicholson explained how ‘Golden Doubt’ tackles themes of grief and love, and how the two intertwine.

“The album tries to bottle the rush of feelings and fears when you give into falling for someone,” he said. “It’s also an album in love with other albums, and the other bands around us.”

Quivers also released a full-length album of R.E.M. covers in February, completely re-imagining the legendary rockers’ 1991 album ‘Out Of Time’. They promoted the effort with a music video for their take on ‘Losing My Religion’.
