Fixers Unveil Album Title, Video



Fixers have decided to name their upcoming debut album 'We'll Be The Moon'.

One of most idiosyncratic new groups in the country, Fixers have been teasing fans with information about their debut album. Dropping facts a piece at a time, the Oxford band have now announced the name of their first LP.

'We'll Be The Moon' is the title of the upcoming album, which is set to be released on May 14th. Following a handful of singles and a recent EP, Fixers have proved that the worst thing anyone can do is second guess them...

Offering a new preview, Fixers have unveiled the video for their track 'Iron Deer Dream'. A quote from the band:

"There is a novel titled Kangaroo Notebook by a Japanese author named Kobo Abe. It tells the story of a man who wakes up to find himself sprouting radishes from his armpits - I wasn't even aware of this novel when the Iron Deer Dream video idea was devised. We simply wanted to do something absurdist and surreal, something that flourished in the abstract whilst keeping a level of comedy and demented angst. I always saw the elderly man's ailment as a rather direct metaphor for my breakfast cereal addiction too..."

Funny they should mention books - Fixers frontman Jack Goldstein entered Their Library last year on this very website...

Watch 'Iron Deer Dream' below.
