:::RELEASES:::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!"
