‘When You Stop’ captures everything WorldCafe loves about the band July Talk: the co-mingling and interlacing of the guitars, the powerful push and pull of the rhythms and more.
From the band's new album, it captures everything about this band that we love: the decadelong relationship between Goldstein and Derimanis that has brought about both light and darkness in the way their vocals work together, the co-mingling and interlacing of the guitar playing, and the understated yet powerful push and pull of the rhythms., and we asked them how the pandemic affected the making of this record.
She continues:"We were on the road a lot and witnessing these trends everywhere we went around the world. No one could've predicted the events of the past few years, but maybe on a karmic level, we felt we had it coming as human beings. It's kind of like there's a fork in the road when the path of darkness you've been traveling down feels endless.
About the song"When You Stop," which was produced by Kevin Drew of Broken Social Scene, Dreimanis says:"It seemed to materialize out of thin air... It was our first time collaborating with our friend Kevin. His process is different from what we were used to, focusing on creating in the moment without allowing any preconceived ideas to seep in. Thinking with our bodies and letting our brains take the backseat for a day. I remember the chords feeling dark but hopeful.
"Before long," Dreimanis continues,"I found myself repeating the same lyric over and over again in my head: 'When you stop you find out what you're running from.' After a period of heavy reflection over the past couple of years, questioning the value of the hustle and whether the motive matched the means, the lyric felt correct. We did what we could to finish the song in an honest way from there, but we were always chasing that initial feeling.
