Fresh from a Radio 1 Hottest Record, Fat Dog have announced news of their second album Cancel Me (I’m Tired) alongside the release of its title track. Due out on October 2nd, with Cancel Me (I’m Tired), Fat Dog have created an exhilarating, swaggering, panoramic, inventive, re-inventive, re-re-inventive electro-punk-art-pop-rock’n’roll-space-country triumph that deserves all the adjectives. Over ten mind-bending and melodic tracks, it blends electro-pop anthems, cascading rave bangers, bombastic strings, cowboy-tinged pitstops and swirling psychedelia.
“Cancel Me (I’m Tired)” – out today - was inspired by John Lennon’s “How Do You Sleep” combined with frontman/songwriter Joe Love imagining what Anatolian rock experimentalists Altın Gün would sound like if they were under siege from a thumping club beat. The title track begins with a riotous declaration. “If you wanna cancel me/Then go ahead and do it please,” It’s the sound of what happens when people push your buttons and your buttons start pushing back.
The video for “Cancel Me (I’m Tired)” is directed by Chanthila Phaophanit and features an increasingly absurd talent show getting underway.
‘ROOM 12’ ARTWORK
“Cancel Me (I’m Tired)” follows the release of propulsive, jubilant electro-pop single “Go Fuck Urself” in May and the band’s storming support for Kneecap’s Crystal Palace gig last weekend – the only English band on the bill no less. This week, Fat Dog join Foo Fighters on a run of stadium shows and ahead of their headline UK & European tour starting late October, they have announced an instore tour.
