Fangs Out announce new EP ‘The Humour In Hell’

FANGS OUT have announced a new EP!

Titled The Humour In Hell, the upcoming EP from the West Midlands-based hardcore band is the follow-up to 2021’s Pretty Bleak, and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via self-release. News of the EP comes on the back of recent singles Get Grim and Doomed Away.

Speaking about the upcoming EP, frontman Mikey White says, “I’ve always been the type of person to use humour and jokes to deal with difficult situations, or as a defence mechanism, instead of dealing with things head on. In my approach to lyrics I’m no different. Most of the songs on the EP deal with some personal – and at times pretty heavy – subject matter (except Sabbath Town – that’s just about the band raging in Birmingham) but portrayed in a very tongue-in-cheek way. It might not be healthiest way to deal with things, but it’s my way of trying to find the light in the darkness or The Humour In Hell.”

Alongside the announcement of the new EP, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming EP; Sabbath Town. Speaking about the new song, White says, Sabbath Town is our love letter to Birmingham and an obvious nod to the kings of metal BLACK SABBATH. Brum is a city where we’ve all grown up and spent our lives going to – and playing – shows. There is an awesome and thriving alternative scene in Birmingham with many amazing venues and talented bands. Our dream is to play a small part in getting back on the musical and cultural map where it belongs, so that people give it the attention it deserves as the city where it all began.”
