About this album

Universal Music Australia Pty. Ltd. (2009) Released: 13 Nov 2009 12 tracks (44:51)
Golden Rule is the seventh studio album by Australian rock band Powderfinger, released on 13 November 2009. 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.

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.

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”.
On November 6th 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.
