The Faff


7" Vinyl copy - Order below



:::REVIEWS:::




'Klaxons thrown in a blender with test icicles and we are scientists'

The Rhubarb Bomb.





"First up being the delightfully named The Faff, a band with a penchant for comically named songs, quirky sampling and howling vocals. First track 'You've got no feet'begins with what appears to be laboured sex noise, before promptly launching into spikey, synthbacked riffery and a chaotic solo, whilst 'Wooden Tit' makes room for more sex noises. 'Cillit Bang'sees them faffing (ahem) with electropop. Barry Scot is sadly not mentioned in this instrumental."

The Rhubarb Bomb





"...throw in a healthy complement of Wakefield’s finest - The Faff"

Wakefield Express





"A great song!! (You.ve got no feet)"

Insomnia Radio UK





"Mental Wakefield four-piece that sound like the Arctics being force-fed Klaxons & Test Icicles. Neither would be our cup of tea normally but it works."

Time For Heroes





"The Faff are up now and we desperately need something good. They duly deliver with ‘Gary’s Balding’, a relentless, hundred mile an hour energy blast. Will spits his vocals with Yorkshire, Monkey-like conviction and dark synths heighten the whole bombastic affair. A needed kick up the arse."

Beat Surrender





"Brilliant!."

NME





"Their energetic songs are upbeat and addictive, comparable to an adrenaline rush. There's just so much going on so quickly that you can't help but move to it."

Sandman Magazine





"Bursting with energy and raw, bloody talent!"

Sandman Magazine






"Well crafted synth-pop, which has the legs to be setting indie disco dancefloors on fire!

Infectious, irresistible pop tune, complete with shouty backing vocals and ridiculously cheery synths

If you don’t find yourself dancing round your room to this, triumphantly punching the air, you might want to look into getting a new pair of ears.

Flawless mix of driving guitars and catchy lyrics, which will no doubt be garnering much more attention for The Faff in the years to come."

Neon Buzz Magazine






"Focussed and thrilling post-punk disco infections!"

Don Goliath "Bagstep EP" (DDR030) is out now!

Review:
"Don Goliath's "Bagstep EP" (DDR030) is one of those innovative EPs showcasing how versatile Dubstep can get. The unique idea of creating Dubstep versions of celctic (Irish as well as Scottish) folk classics for all you drunkards longing to sing along was Don Goliath's motto when producing this madness. The concept is as simple as effective: he picked 4 of your grandpa's favourites such as "Old Skibbereen", "Scotland the Brave", "Drunken Sailor" and "Amazing Grace" having the melody played by a definitly non-sober Bagpipe section and then layering it with lofi mid range wobbleism - we therefor call it Bagstep. Overall production quality is high grade with that intense sub focus so you can blow-dry your hair right in front of the bass bins. Now let's get into the tunes: "Skibbereen Bagstep" is one of the melancolic minor tunes expressing Irish history as it is. It is an unmixable 3/4 waltz beat at unusual 154bpm, well dancebal though when one moves to the triplets. "Bagstep the brave" should be one of the sickest rebuilds of the Scottish national anthem making it Mel Gibson's signature tune if he had one. "Drunken Bagstep" is a Glitchfest version of the sailors anthem capable of getting you uberdrunk by listening alone, Arrrr! "Amazing Bagstep" is as religious as it gets making it a tune that'll certainly safe xamounts of lost souls.
Enjoying the dancefloor got even easier now: drink out the bar, make your skirt fly and sing along to these (future) classics!
Some will hate this release and some will love it, there barely is anything in between. All Dubstep Division crew salutes the latter as our fellow beerheadz! cheeeeeerz!"
