Hoist the Colors Returns With New Song “Documentation”
Los Angeles-based folk-punk band Hoist the Colors, consisting of Josh Linden (vocals/mandolin), Sina Etesami (acoustic guitar), Fabian De La Torre (bass), Ivan De La Torre (drums), Jeff Murphy (guitar), and Camilo Barahona (fiddle), returned with a new song “Documentation” on July 15, 2025.
The song is their first music in three years since the 2022 album “When Daylight Breaks”.
The track will appear on their upcoming fifth studio album “Dear Wanderlust”, which is set to be released on October 10, 2025 via HEY!FEVER Records.
It is their first release under their new label HEY!FEVER Records.
The track explores the emotional highs and lows that define the human experience-moments of joy and despair that converge into something universally relatable.
It was written by Joshua Linden and produced by Paul Miner. The accompanying music video was directed by Jeff Antons.- The band frontman Josh Linden said of the song, “‘Documentation’ was written about the juxtapositions we come across as we travel through our lives. There are moments of triumph and overwhelming joy that are consistently being met with times of desperation and unbearable pain. These all coalesce into a singular human experience.”
He continued, “With Jeff Antons directing, we used the Port of Los Angeles, a booming hub in our home city, as a backdrop representing the ebbs and flows of what we as a band, and as individuals, go through. It really ties in with the rest of the record as each track represents an individual journey that we all encounter as we move ahead.” - source : Apple Music
