Following on from the success of debut album ‘Enjoy It While It Lasts’, which peaked in the UK charts at number 3, and their triumphant appearances at the Reading and Leeds festivals, Spector release ‘Friday Night, Don’t Ever Let It End’ on Monday 15th October.
Opening lyrics ‘The Honeymoon was over, before the wedding had begun’ can easily be comprehended by anyone in any circumstance. In the literal sense a heartbroken Casanova can look back how he took his lover for granted and ended up losing her. Or it can be related to UK’s obsession with living for the weekend and our defiant refusal to recognize the pain and disappointment we go through in search of a good time. You choose…
Either way there is no doubt this next instalment from Spector is an anthemetic indie/pop tune, hear it below and check out how the candid, enigmatic, sometimes obnoxious front-man Fred Macpershon says about the track…
Lead singer, Fred Macpherson “Sometimes you want Friday Night to last forever but sometimes it just feels like it will never end. No matter what shit you go through, you forget that when you look back on what seem like the perfect moments from a night out – those are the memories that matter.”
Spector will be touring the UK in October, taking friends Swim Deep, Splashh and Luls along for the ride, culminating in a show at Shepherd’s Bush Empire on 10th November. All dates below.
