Tut tut. Stupid SOIWT went and listened to London fourpiece Foreign Office‘s shiny, in-your-face pop beats while nursing the most hideous of hangovers and pondering a looming day of chores. Not clever: hours of Leonard-Cohen, drawn curtains and controlled breathing had to follow. Hours later, though, the dynamic indie-disco melodies and serious Hot Chip-esque shakeability seem infinitely more bearable, and life becomes a peach melba of possibilities.
Foreign Office are playing Pure Groove on Monday 22 March, at Proud on Friday 26 March and then the St. Moritz Club on Wednesday 31 March.
