- The duo's third full-length will come out in July via ATP Recordings.
- Fuck Buttons will release their third album, Slow Focus, on July 22nd. Benjamin John Power and Andrew Hung's most recent album as Fuck Buttons was 2009's Tarot Sport, which was produced by Andrew Weatherall. Slow Focus is their first self-produced LP, and as with their first two albums, it'll be released through ATP Recordings. "Slow Focus seemed like a very apt title when considering the sentiment of the music," explained Power. "It almost feels like the moment your eyes take to readjust when waking, and realising you're in a very unusual and not a particularly welcoming place. We like to think that we create our own new landscapes, and with this it's a very alien one." The duo plan to take their live show on the road in support of the album, with festival dates confirmed across Europe and the UK. The tour kicks off on May 23rd at Primavera Sound in Barcelona, and takes in dates at Glastonbury, Best Kept Secret and Greenman festival among others. Tracklist 01. Brainfreeze 02. Year Of The Dog 03. The Red Wing 04. Sentients 05. Prince’s Prize 06. Stalker 07. Hidden XS ATP Recordings will release Slow Focus on July 22nd, 2013.
