 Patrick Wolf announces new single.
2009-05-05

Hard Times is the second single to be taken from Patricks new fourth album The Bachelor. Following the first single Vulture, Hard Times is a track full of impatience, celebrating the idea of change and revolution.

The single is released 15th of June

Perhaps the strongest and most powerful track on the album, full of heavy guitar, angry sentiment, yet complimented by a stunning, Turkish style violin and cello riff which dances throughout the track and vocals, Hard Times is a work of art in its own right and continues to show Patricks diversity as an artist and songwriter.
Patrick programmed the beats ...to be like a panicked soldier on the front line of a war desperately trying to send a message through a walkie talkie, battling against radio interference...
The lead guitar solo is played by Tom White from the Brakes and the ondes martenot played by classical composer Thomas Bloch.
