HÆLOS got their start shrouded in mystery, but it wasn't intentional, they just didn't have a press photo. The UK trio – Arthur Delaney, Lotti Benardout and Dom Goldsmith – had just released their first video for "Dust" in late 2014 without fanfare or background information, catching the attention of curious listeners. The angelic combination of male-female vocal interplay and atmospheric soundscapes created an expansive and cinematic feel, at once hypnotizing and seductive, which the band dubbed "dark euphoria." They followed "Dust" with "Pray" (channeling some of Moby's most uplifting tunes) and "Earth Not Above" in 2015, updating the coolness of '90s trip-hop with a modern pulse, as if The xx had a little more fire in their blood, Portishead lightened up a bit or Massive Attack were a little friendlier. They signed with Matador Records in March 2015 and played a number of high-profile industry shows throughout the year before releasing their debut EP Earth Not Above, which included the previously released title track and three new songs. A year later, they released their first LP Full Circle. – https://www.allmusic.com/artist/hælos-mn0003410347/biography

When we came back to work on the music that would become our new album we decided to explore different ways of writing to challenge and push ourselves in a new direction. We set about trying to write one song an hour for a week and “Buried In The Sand” came from one of those jams. Dom working a beat and bassline from his modular set up and Daniel, Lotti, and Arthur jamming licks and vocals over the top. Our passion for throwing together odd genres meant we all dove deep into our record collections for inspiration which lead us to interesting places like the bluesy undertones in Arthur’s vocal. Daniel, who toured with us from the beginning, was really involved in the writing and has joined us as a full member of HÆLOS. His musicality is all over this track.

The song title was an accident and came serendipitously from the phonetics of the melody, but the rest of the lyrics were born from a strange dinner party where everyone ended up Snapchatting each other and no one was talking face to face. It perfectly summed up how jarring and unnatural our disappearance into a digital world could be. Lotti’s verses sound almost like a poem a computer would write if requested — a synthetic perfection that holds a certain tension against the emotion of the music.

Erstes Album war stark. Mal schauen ob sie das mit der zweiten Platte bestätigen können.
 
Die Meßlatte liegt hoch. Habe das erste Album locker 100x gehört, das will in den heutigen Zeiten schon was heißen.

Gestern das neue Album gehört. War irgendwie nicht so scharf drauf nach den Singles.

Sehr positiv überrascht. Ist auf jeden Fall ne Entwicklung zum ersten Album hörbar. Und das tut dem ganzen auch echt gut. Viele neue (Live?) Sounds eingebaut.

Gerade als Gesamtwerk wieder sehr stark. Definitiv eine meiner Lieblingsbands aus England zur Zeit.
