Working Men’s Club – Fear Fear (Indie Exclusive White Vinyl) LP

Their Critically Acclaimed Self-Titled Debut Album, Released In Summer 2020, Was The Sound Of Singer And Songwriter Syd Minsky-Sargeant Processing A Teenage Life In Todmorden In The Upper Calder Valley. He Was 16 When He Wrote Some Of Those Songs, Now 20, He Had To Get Up And Out Of The Valley. ?The First Album Was Mostly A Personal Documentation Lyrically, This Is A Blur Between Personal And A Third-Person Perspective Of What Was Going On.? Fear Fear Documents The Last Two Years. Yes, There Is Bleakness ? But There Is Also Hope And Empathy. ?I Like The Contrast Of It Being Happy, Uplifting Music And Really Dark Lyrics. It?s Not A Minimal Record, Certainly Compared To The First One. That?s Because There?s Been A Lot More Going On That Needed To Be Said.?
Making The Busy Feel Finessed And The Dreadful Feel Magical ? Fear Fear Manages Those Feats, And Then Some. Or, As Syd Minksy-Sargeant Puts It: ?We Just Set Out To Make The Best-Sounding Album We Could.?
Fear Fear Was Produced By Ross Orton (Arctic Monkeys, MIA, Tricky) And Recorded At Orton?s Studio In Sheffield.
