Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Infobox album Шаблон:Music ratings Golden Rule is the seventh and final studio album by Australian rock band Powderfinger, released on 13 November 2009.[1] The album reunites the band with producer Nick DiDia, who produced several of the group's previous albums including, Internationalist, Odyssey Number Five and Vulture Street.
Background
The band recorded the album at Studio 301 in Byron Bay, New South Wales, beginning in June 2009, and completing the recording in August. The group's drummer Jon Coghill announced the name of the album on 11 September 2009.
The crowd was recorded at the 2009 Splendour in the Grass for the song "Think It Over".
Singles
The first single to be released was "All of the Dreamers", which was released on 16 October 2009. Lead singer Bernard Fanning describes the song as the "most consistently upbeat song that we have written in our entire career," and that "it's a sideways glance at the sometimes redundant nature of party politics", however he has stated that it is not a particularly political song, but rather "a general dissatisfaction with the way democracy can be blindsided by the self interest that holding on to power can generate".[2] "All of the Dreamers" was ranked no. 49 in Triple J's Hottest 100 of 2009.[3]
On 6 November it was mentioned by the band's lead guitarist Darren Middleton on the Powderfinger website that the upcoming second single off the album would be "Burn Your Name". The video clip for the song was filmed in Thailand.
"Sail the Wildest Stretch" was remixed by Michael Brauer and released as the band's third single from the album in April 2010.
"Iberian Dream" is the final single off the album, released on 16 August 2010.[4]
