In these days of studio trickery, the live performance is often pushed aside in favour of an avalanche of vocal tweaks, guitar effects and layers of studio sheen.
Which is why the news that Foreign Office are to release an EP recorded live in the studio is so refreshing. Stick away yer Pro Tools, this just got serious…
‘Alaska’ is set to drop next week (October 17th) but Foreign Office have decided to shoot a beautiful new video. Using footage recorded at their summer shows, the band are caught in action playing support slots with Erasure and Wolf Gang, amongst others.
Lead track ‘Hands & Knees’ is all synth driven bravado and guitar bedlam, with Foreign Office steaming through the cut in an energetic frenzy.
Watch the video below…
