Then they fall – be it a lover, a friend, a celebrity icon, an ideology – those gods that we believed would hold us in our stupor forever, let go… for they are only human by design.įor me, the song embraces all of those aspects the deeply personal experience of a lover letting me go, a friend dying too young, along with the more social rise/demise in the humanness of a once-beloved celebrity and the deep betrayal hidden within the folds of colonialism and/or religious fundamentalism. “Remembering the times where you share your trust, your love, your belief in someone else beautiful tender moments where you open up and perhaps raise them up a little too high above you. “‘ When Gods Lie ’ was of those tunes that came in a flash from the ether,” said Reb Fountain. In “ When Gods Lie”, Reb’s mesmerising and alluring vocals sit perfectly atop pulsating folk instrumentation, creating a simultaneously soaring and mellow listen. Reb has also hinted at a national Australian tour, to coincide with her appearance alongside Grinspoon’s Phil Jamieson, Sarah McLeod of The Superjesus, Shihad’s Jon Toogood, Samuel Flynn Scott, SJD, Delaney Davidson and Bob Evans of Jebediah to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Neil Young’s seminal album “ Live Rust” in Sydney on May 7th and in Melbourne on May 9th. NZ local Reb Fountain has blessed us with the release of her second single of 2020, “ When Gods Lie”, revealed on Friday 13th of March 2020, from her forthcoming self-titled album, set for release on May 1st 2020 with Flying Nun.
