Fat White Family

 

While our first LP might be considered an assault, a spasmodic outpouring of disdain generated by the utter tedium of life when it is found unlivable, Songs For Our Mothers is an invitation. It is an invitation, sent by misery, to dance to the beat of human hatred. In it we ask that you take us gently by the hand as we lead you on a journey, a journey that leads us from the blinding white heat of a midday Mediterranean shore, to the embattled boudoir of Ike and Tina Turner, from the clotted grey droll of Dr Harold Shipman's waiting room, to the final hours of the Third Reich in the Berlin bunker.

 

It is as much a catalogue of our obsessions as it is a sensual odyssey; sex, drugs, politics, death, the Northern Irish A-lister Sam Neil, it's all here, all that's left to do now is breathe it in.

 

Fat White Family release their new album. Songs For Our Mothers on their own Without Consent label via Fat Possum (in North America) January 22nd, 2016.

 

Co -produced by Liam Trashmouth and the Fat White Family and recorded at the Trashmouth studios in New Malden and Marcata Studios (where both Swans and Titus Andonicus record), and in New Paltz in upstate New York, the track listing of the 10-track album is as follows:

 

1. Whitest Boy On The Beach

2. Satisfied

3. Love Is The Crack

4. Duce

5. Lebensraum

6. Hits Hits Hits

7. Tinfoil Deathstar

8. When Shipman Decides

9. We Must Learn To Rise

10. Goodbye Goebbels
