I've been in to this band for some time now and I have to say they are fucking sweet. Fuck Buttons is composed of Benjamin John Power and Andrew Hung from Bristol England. Their music is like a tidal flow of sound. Gentle keyboard distortions, layered up and build into a gentle repetition, buffeted by waves of semi-comprehensible screamed vocals. There is something in this sound that reminds me of an impending apocalypse. Like they have turned the phrase "the calm before the storm" into a soundtrack. I have to say though, if the world was ending in a week, I think I would rage the entire week to these guys. This joyous noise can be heard on their latest album titled Street Horrrsing and has been described as a "... 50 minute melange of iridescent synths, psychedelic drone, distorted vocals and tribal rhythm."
