London band Fews first met on MySpace as teenagers when one was based in California and the other in Sweden. Since then they’ve met in real life, geeked out over Interpol, explored Berlin’s club scene, and started kicking out frantic yet hypnotic post-punk. We heard their excellent single “The Zoo” last autumn, and they’re set to release their Dan Carey-produced debut album Means in May. With an apperance at Nottingham’s Dot To Dot Festival A preview of the album is their latest single “100 Goosebumps.”
Beginning with a mesmerizing, pulsating guitar, But with the abrupt introduction of a fast-paced drum beat, you are quickly woken up, and “100 Goosebumps” transforms into a lively creation shaped by the drums’ shifting speeds. Though the tempo is fast, the vocals casually explore the fear of not living life to the fullest. At the end, the drums come crashing down, leaving nothing but the lull of the guitar that began the song.
