Fat White Family have shared an official video for Feet after the single’s premiere was a part of their new album Serfs Up’s announcement last week.
It was directed by C.C. Wade and arrives with details of the band’s first London shows since September 2016. Those will take place at the Lexington on January 30th and 31st.
Serfs Up! is due for release on April 19th as the follow-up to 2016’s Songs For Our Mothers; “Opening track ‘Whitest Boy On The Beach’ is wonderfully minimal yet euphoric and aggressive – it’s Jean Michelle Jarre meets Suicide, while ‘Satisfied’ is as close as it gets here to single material,” our review states. “It’s still a total shambles, but that is why we’re all here after all.”
“Then come the soundscapes. Songs are gone, it’s paraphernalia as music, like taking the lucid trip of Beefheart’s ‘Trout Mask Replica’ into the unconscious. ‘Duce’ sounds more like the onomatopoeic sound of paranoia until it finally coalesces into something tangible during its death throws.”
“‘Lebensraum’, which feels like a disconcerting far left reimagining of The Doors’ ‘Alabama Song (Whisky Bar)’, is unsettling but no less uninteresting.”
