Year: 2022

For ‘Rumors’ Los Angeles band ‘Songs for Sabotage’ pulled out all the cliches… 808 bass, trap hats and percussion, and a lyrical narrative that’s clearly just telling someone to f off. They wrote most of it in early 2020 during the recording of their first album. It felt vicious and clever to us but we had little intention of turning it into an SFS song; in all likelihood it was going to sit in a folder for future ideas unrelated to the band.

BBC Introducing-featured Chesterfield Singer/Songwriter ‘Aza Brown’ returns with his first single of 2022 – “For Real?”. A swaggering “Suffragette City”-esque stomp that finds Aza in a rallying tirade against the futility of modern living and the Rat Race. Fresh and revitalised from 2 months in Mexico (filming the videos for this and next single “Afterthought”), Aza certainly isn’t mincing his words here, in a scathing critique of the masses’ zombie-like acceptance of their lot, with perhaps his most direct message lyrically, and subtle relevance to current affairs

This song was made from the frustration of being in love with someone with anxiety and depression. Wanting to give them everything you have but knowing that their illness would cause issues beyond both your control.
