Now it’s a Monday morning, so let us allow you to finish off that final mouthful of cornflakes and come to terms with the start of another long week before you dip into our latest photo gallery.

Anyone out there already familiar with Fat White Family will not be surprised to learn a band member of a very different kind took centre stage during the show in New York last weekend, and that therefore some NSFW caution should be heeded before you proceed by clicking on the lead image above.

Indeed, frontman Lias Saoudi‘s unmentionables have been proudly, unashamedly on display right from the group’s first press shot, and it didn’t take long for it all to be introduced to the Bowery Ballroom on New York’s lower east side last Saturday night (October 18th) as Fat White Family continued their tour of North America in support of the 2014 ‘Champagne Holocaust‘ album.

For all the antics, the LP is actually a relatively straightforward British rock album; a melodic, no frills, accessible affair even if the lyrical content stays as close to the edge as Saoudi’s indie striptease did on Saturday.

The tour resumes tomorrow night in Montreal.
