Four years after the release of its critically acclaimed 2019 album Serf’s Up, lauded UK punk group Fat White Family has returned with its new song “Religion For One.” Alongside the track, the band has shared the hauntingly beautiful music video directed by Michael William Wes (The Dream Machine). Shot in Paris, the video is a portrait of corrupt ambition, aesthetic incest and the history of abstract expressionism.
About the song, frontman Lias Saoudi reflected, “Abject narcissism is our only real code of conduct anymore. Everything is thinly veiled self-interest. The post-modern post social media condition constitutes a complete death of outwardness. We are smothered by the infinite present. We have swapped art for the history of art. The game is up. The party’s over…NO SURRENDER!”
