Just when Fear of Men look to have dished out all their tricks, they go ahead and start singing in French. A new version of ‘Luna’ has been recorded, with lead singer Jessica Weiss waxing lyrical in a new French tongue.

The song arrives ahead of the Brighton group’s forthcoming European tour with The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart. ‘Luna”s lost none of its original zest - it just sounds fancier, more cultured (obviously).

Listen to the “Version Francaise” below. Fear of Men’s debut album ‘Loom’ is out now on Kanine Records. It picked up 4 stars on DIY, with Danny Wright claiming the band to “have created something more than mere fragments; a record which could engulf you if you give it chance; where sounds and textures merge together to create a beautifully bleak story.”
