Scumbag Philosopher (formerly ‘Fuck Dress’) are to release (or rather re-release) their single God Is Dead So I Listen To Radiohead.
The song was first released a couple of years ago on a limited edition 7″ single and was an indie hit in Italy and Spain. But now the band are hoping it proves to be a hit in other countries as it gets it re-release on US label, Words On Music on Monday 6th June. The song has the sound of what Jez from Peep Show’s music would sound like if he joined an indie band and..you know, wasn’t shit at making music.
The video to accompany the song has already been up over a year, but now that it has a re-release, it’s only neccessary to post it again. It’s…strange and doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, much like Radiohead then – who’s video for Just is spoofed in the following video!
The single is taken from the band’s debut album which will be released a little later in the summer and will be called It Means Nothing So It Means Nothing.
The band will also be playing a few dates over June and July:
Here are some live dates.
Wed 1st June – KOKO, London (with The Fall)
Fri 3rd June – MOHO Live, Manchester (with The Fall)
Sat 11th June – Glade Festival
Sat 2nd July – Manchester Roadhouse
According to the band, God Is Dead So I Listen To Radiohead is “about a certain kind of suburban Nietzsche freak who attaches themselves to certain introspective musicians and to certain philosophers – or rather to their more well-known quotes.” Nothing too in depth then!
