What better a friendly reminder of this weekend’s Portishead helmed ATP Festival than with news of bleak-beated noiseniks Fuck Buttons’ ongoings?
Ready to deaden eardrums with their euphoric electronic sprawl, the pair’s debut record, Street Horrrsing, is due for release on February 11 through ATP Recordings, with Shellac’s Bob Weston having recently put the finishing touches to the six-track brute from his Chicago engineering bunker. Recorded with Mogwai’s John Cummings and Part Chimp’s Tim Cedar it seems safe to presume this is going to be one bastard racket.
Street Horrrsing runs. As follows:
‘Sweet Love For Planet Earth’
‘Ribst Out’
‘Okay, Let's Talk About Magic
‘Race You To My Bedroom’ / ‘Spirit ‘Rise’
‘Bright Tomorrow’
‘Colours Move’
Released last month, ‘Bright Tomorrow’ (review) now has a video as London skylines get fittingly drenched in Global Hypercolour:
Other than the ATP appearances, Fuck Buttons perform tomorrow at London’s ICA. An extensive UK tour has been penned in for early next year.
