Demob Happy share new song ‘Fake Satan’
The glammy slice lands ahead of their second album ‘Holy Doom’.

Demob Happy are officially supporting The Cribs on tour, uh, right now, actually, and they’re also gearing up for the release of their second album next year.
New record ‘Holy Doom’ comes out on 23rd March 2018, but in the meantime the now trio have delivered a glammy slice of scuzz to sate our appetites. ‘Fake Satan’ - all chugging guitars and yelping sleaze - is Demob at their best, and in the words of the band’s Matthew Marcantonio, “it’s the sacramental boogie and the voodoo hoochie coochie. Sex and love. Fine things we’re made to feel guilty for, but they aren’t the real evil.” There you go, then!
