Friend World [CD]

Three years after the release of their debut album, Do Nothing return with their much-anticipated sophomore, 'Friend World'. The Nottingham four piece consisting of Chris Bailey, Kasper Sandstrom, Charlie Howarth, Andrew Harrison, emerge bolder, self-assured and more energetic than ever. Lead single 'Stars' gives an insight into the upcoming LP, synth-laden with hypnotic riffs, meandering vocals and bouncing basslines. The single, already a fan favorite, paves the way for listeners to enter the 'Friend World' that Do Nothing has created. At first glance, the album is overflowing with hard hitting guitars, infectious rhythms and frontman Bailey's signature razor-sharp witted lyricism, but dive deeper into tracks such as These People Want Blood and standout track Loner, to find an alternative take on the album, representing a softer and more pensive side of the band's writing.
