Track Of The Day :: Do Nothing - Fits


 Credit: Adrian Vitelleschi Cook


Words: Sam Geary 

Nottingham’s Do Nothing follow their breakout banger 'LeBron James' from late last year, with new dynamo ‘Fits’.

Out on the quartet's own imprint Exact Truth, the track - which further highlights Do Nothing's way of mixing an hypnotic vocal drive with exciting pop-punk meets funk rhythms - will feature on their upcoming debut EP 'Zero Dollar Bill', which follows on April 10.

“This song came about relatively naturally," reveals vocalist Chris Bailey. "It’s about that sad little feeling of drifting away from things that meant a lot to you when you were younger. I wanted to write something about my big brother, and what came out sounds somewhat sarcastic, but is actually a quite sincere love song to him and our childhoods. He’s called Benji, and I don’t see him enough.”
