Sydney-based indie-rock artist Timi Temple has returned with his groovy new single “Quick Words, Long Trouble,” which he produced himself.
Today we have the honor and privilege of premiering this big rock anthem, one that has a big-time psych-rock groove and some summer-sounding melodies that are brought home in a fashion that just begs to be played at maximum volume with the windows down during a nice summers drive. This sounds like the sort of rock anthem you’d hear on the radio in the 90s, a soundtrack for a much simpler time indeed.
Below, find Tim’s thoughts about the meaning behind “Quick Words, Long Trouble”:
“’Quick Words, Long Trouble’ is my first song about love. I’ve generally tried to avoid writing songs about love because I think it’s been rinsed enough times by other artists. However, this song was cathartic and therapeutic to me as it helped me through a long-term breakup. The phrase is something that my mother used to tell me, somewhat translated from Thai meaning ‘don’t do anything in heated anger because the repercussions will last forever’. It’s served me well, but also probably lead to me not fighting for a salvageable relationship because I was too cautious with my words. The spoken word poem in the bridge of this song reflects this”.
