BEARSUIT - WHEN WILL I BE QUEEN (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

As Royal wedding fever grips the nation, dance-punk five-piece Bearsuit releases their new single When Will I Be Queen? on February 28. But an ode for Kate Middleton this ain’t. Unless you’d find “no more waity” boozing it up with broken heels and smudged mascara to a Tech Noir soundtrack of filthy bass, killer beats, schizophrenic vocals and sinister synths on her hen night.

he new single comes ahead of the band’s eagerly anticipated album The Phantom Forest on March 14 on Fortuna POP! The 12-track long-player heralds a fierce new sound for the band, who have swapped violins, flutes and horns for dirty synths, urgent guitars and infectious beats in the light of a dramatic line-up change. With a sprinkling of sonic dust from big-time producer Gareth Parton (The Go Team, Breeders, Foals) the band have created a perfectly off-the-wall pop masterpiece.

The band are heading to SXSW later this month and have been raising funds via the website http://www.wefund.co.uk/project/bearsuit-sxsw. For £1000 they'll even change their band name, to the name of their sponsor for a month.
