Silence
Older
The title tracks from OLDER's debut album of the same name. How well do your friends and family know you? The real 'you' is danced around in conversations that ask all the regular questions but none that actually matter, none that get to the heart of you. Then as a society we wonder why our suicide rate is so high, not just our youth but our middle-aged men. New Zealand's society can be polar, uncaring, cold and poisoned by endless advertising that is designed to make you want or need more. You're fed stereotypical visions of what makes a real man or woman which are false. Mainstream media is fake and divisive. To survive this myriad of meaningless diatribe needs strength of character that is testing for the most stable of minds. We need to break the silence. We need to talk, screw what other people think, screw their judgements. Open up. No more, Silence.

About Older

Older: OLDER have a passion for producing biting social commentary that takes a hard swipe at modern life. Jel Legg & Julie Legg produce music that is laden with antipathy for mainstream culture and is seasoned with an alternative point of view, wrapped up in a deceptive layer of respectability. As champions of the creative thinker and the under dog yapping in the wind, everything they write is inspired by first-hand experience.

Being driven by a love for high-energy music doesn't mean their music has to always be that way. Their productions can be both simple and cinematic while their lyrics question everything and assume nothing. Their thoughts and ideas can bite, but they are nice people, really. Their albums are honest and accessible to many listeners but equally they are never constrained by genre expectations or commercial goals.

The band are true ambiverts living away from people in rural New Zealand, happy in their own space and never more so than in their own Studio109. When they 'go out to play' they love to hang with interesting, creative types and engage deeply. They are the oddballs that never quite grew up, never quite fitted in and didn't like being members of the crowd. OLDER's 'inner child' is alive and well and seeing life for how pompous it can be.
