Feet was formed just a few years ago when frontman George, guitarist Callum, and bassist Oli met at Coventry University, later adding guitarist Harry and drummer Ben. (You're on a first-name basis when it comes to Feet) They released the single "Petty Thieving" in 2017, but have revamped it in the studio for their debut full-length What’s Inside Is More Than Just Ham, produced by Cam Blackwood (Jamie T, London Grammar) and mixed by Alan Moulder (Foals, Interpol, Beach House).
In a press release, George cheekily declares:
"Petty Thieving" is an example of masterful song writing and immeasurable levels of maturity from a band consisting of 3 scholars, a well-informed brummie, and a master student from the university of life. It would be modest to say this song isn’t the greatest jangly, baggy, fidgety guitar song of the decade, but modesty is for indie bands. The fact I’m not writing this from a seat on a private submarine to my condo on top of a live volcano is a genuine travesty. The song was so painfully easy to write, a third of the instrumentation was composed as the entire band was asleep. If "Petty Thieving" isn’t a landmark claim for FEET to be considered as one the greatest bands of all time, then I’ll go ahead and stop the advanced building of a 100ft mural in our honour above the Primark in Cov.
For the music video, Feet share this delightful medieval times-inspired clip. George continues:
"Petty Thieving" won’t win any awards and I doubt Scorsese will be leaving a YouTube comment, but for a fleeting second behind a dangerously expensive camera, wearing an almost full suit of armour, five milky brained idiots become artists. Only joking, we’re not the 1975.
