FFS is the third single released through Dental Records on 9th August, taken from their spectacular debut album Skill Issue.
Between singer/guitarist Jamie Stuart and drummer/multi-instrumentalist Nigel Powell they have a long musical pedigree - together in underground indie heroes Dive Dive, and separately in Dustball, Unbelievable Truth, The Sad Song Co. and Frank Turner And The Sleeping Souls.
Recorded in Johnny Greenwood from Radiohead’s home studio in Oxford, FFS has an infectious energy blending influences such as Idlewild, Fugazi and Slint with angular guitars and driving dancy drums. An inventive video is released the same day, following up the video for previous single Look At Him Go! that has racked up nearly 40,000 views on YouTube. The new video, conceived and directed by Nigel, suits the song’s vibe - driving with the top down feel good hit of the summer. Not that shooting it was easy for Jamie: “I was just told to put a box on my head and wander around various locations with varying levels of embarrassment and was assured it would all make sense in the end. Strangely enough I felt less self conscious in the shopping centre than the majority of the people there. It was a lot of fun.”
