Faux Ferocious - 'No Pressure'

---

Nashville based band Faux Ferocious deliver indie pop meets post-punk weirdness on new single, ‘No Pressure’.

Following the release of the ‘Pretty Groovy’ album, Faux Ferocious are back with ‘No Pressure’. Produced by Patrick Carney of The Black Keys, it’s an indie tune that has an added bit of weirdness. A kraut-disco-post-punk masterpiece, if you’ve ever heard of that before. The drums are fast and never let up, and there’s guitar lines in there that carry the same energy. The first solo is post punk-ish, with an added effect similar to the ones used on Manic Street Preachers ‘Journal for Plague Lovers’.

However, in the last minute, the song breaks down – the tempo halved, and the music played as if the band have run out of batteries. Faux Ferocious blur the lines between chart topping pop and experimentalism, and they have perfected it in ‘No Pressure’.
