Dear Fury Of The Headteachers,
Your band has a fantastic name, but who on earth wrote your press release? It's awful. Apparently you “specialise in providing indie art-rock in three minutes or under”. Well, for a start this track clocks in at 3.13 and that description really doesn't do you justice at all.
It plays down your punk tendencies and says nothing about the paranoid guitars that make 'Fables' far more interesting than the latest Franz release. Instead, it shares a common cause with the likes of ¡Forward Russia!, or any other band that makes noise into something danceable and delectable. So well done on the single, but take my advice and sack your PR quick smart.
Yours sincerely, Rob Webb
