Off the back of the ripper release of their debut single ‘One For You, One For Me’ which premiered at no.2 in the Triple J Unearthed Punk Charts (and later climbed to no.1), Sydney’s newest party punks FANGZ today released a heaving new video to go along with it that will make you puke with excitement.
With the debut track getting spun on Unearthed and then featured nationally on Triple J’s ‘Short.Fast.Loud’ within a week of its release, it’s undeniable this tune has piqued some interest and the high energy video accompaniment is bound to leave you gagging for more.
The song is about being able to shut everything out; negativity, anxiety, your past demons and just raising a drink with those closest to you and getting on with it. Despite the song’s heavy lyrical message, FANGZ were adamant their video debut needed to really portray who they are as a band – a bunch of mates who just really enjoy mucking around and having a good time. With a lot of heavy and f*cked up shit going on in the world, FANGZ use the comradery found in each other to really just let loose and remind one another there’s still some things worth celebrating.
Nothing screams 4 mates having a good time like a good ol domino chain of vomit – the video starts innocent enough with barf punks FANGZ hanging around their backyard, knocking back a few tins. Then enters an elusive croc-dundee wannabe who convinces them to try his new brew, ‘Fangz Xtra Biter’. Turns out pukes of hazzard FANGZ’ guts of steel aren’t enough to handle the brew and a gnarly ralph sequence explodes in a scene that rivals Stephen King’s Lardass in Stand By Me.
When questioned how they came up with the concept for the video, bass player Jameel simply replied “I like drinking beer… and vomit is funny.” A classic, funny and gut-wrenching debut from Fangz. ‘One For You, One For Me’ is sure to leave you feeling queasy…like a sunday morning. Catch these dukes of pukem this weekend as they kick off their first show of a month long residency at Hideaway in Sydney’s Enmore or at UsFest at Oxford Art Factory.
