hinds takeover

we spend so many hours in the van, airports, stations and queues that we had to find things to do. mostly all of these times we have no wifi so we cannot work, so we just love to play games and these are the ones we like playing to:

we did this videogame : www.hindsband.lol absolutely just for fun, and Julia from Mom + Pop did this amazing 8-bit version that you can download NOW FOR FREE!!!!!!

HINDS TEAM! Julia, Hallie and Jess from Mom+Pop: they work and party hard. Perfect match since the beginning.

this is a picture of the day we wrote Bamboo's lyrics. they came pretty easily, we were very very upset and very very drunk, so we knew exactly what we wanted to say and the way we wanted to say it...

(Madrid's HINDS are running things here on the site all day, so please welcome Ana, Carlotta, Ade, and Amber, and stay up on all of their posts here. The band's excellent debut LP Leave Me Alone is out now) we always record our songs while writing them so we have all the process saved in videos at carlotta's place. we did it for the first ever single we put out:
