Solid Gold goes rock to fight back in “Government Grade”
Solid Gold, the Minneapolis band known for its unique electronic sound, has released a new single called “Government Grade.” The band has changed its usual synth-heavy sound by replacing synthesizers with guitars. They are using raw rock energy to express their anger at ICE’s continued presence in Minnesota. The result is a fiery song that sounds both urgent and completely honest.
“Government Grade” directly talks about the social and political unrest in the Twin Cities. This shows that Solid Gold cares about more than just music, they also care about the community. In keeping with this goal, all proceeds from the song’s Bandcamp release will go to Minnesota Mutual Aid groups that support the strong and diverse communities in their hometowns. It’s not common for bands to mix art and activism so well, but Solid Gold makes it seem both natural and necessary.
Solid Gold shows in “Government Grade” that they can switch genres without losing their voice. They use music as both a mirror and a megaphone to talk about the problems in their city. This single is one of the band’s best releases so far because it has socially aware lyrics, charitable actions, and a new sound. If Minneapolis has a song for resistance, this is it.
