Reading’s quartet doops unleashed today their stomping new rocker “Fever Tree”. The song is an absolute smasher with grimy riffs and moody, raw production.
It is the second teaser (after “Idle Hands”) of the upcoming EP by the band, set for release early next year, and the origins of the track begin with an absent bass player, as vocalist/guitarist Andy Bingham shared:
“In doops’ second recording since becoming a four piece, the band lyrically attempts to challenge the theme of trying to stay relevant & visible in a world of constant artistic re-invention, questioning at what point this compromises the integrity of the artist in the process. Set to the back drop of Tarrantino’esque groove, it’s bands’ first experiment into a switch-around on instrumental duties: our bassist Luke couldn’t make practise, so I covered for a rehersal and we ended up with the Fever Tree riff at the end of it!”
