Fat Dog unleash new song “Wither”

Fresh from their four delirious shows at Glastonbury last month, Fat Dog release new single “Wither” from their forthcoming debut album WOOF. (due Sept 6th). Kicking things off with a propulsive drum roll, “Wither” captures the intoxicating energy of the band’s live show as frontman Joe Love builds up to a manic crescendo: “You better wither baby before you die / The whole team withers / The whole team dies.” 

The video directed by Ryan Vautier and inspired by 90s video games is knowingly awash with unnecessary somersaults and wonky graphics. With a nod to Chris Hughes (keys/synth) and Morgan Wallace’s (sax/keys) onstage dance to “Wither”, the gameplay sees the five-piece traverse different worlds meeting bone dealers and singing skulls to come together and fight the final boss Gerald. Will the whole team survive? 



Alongside the announcement, Fat Dog have confirmed several new instore dates including a second show at London’s Rough Trade East.

Fat Dog WOOF.

Album | 6th September 2024

Fat Dog are the most exciting breakthrough band of the past few years, conjurers of the sort of frenzied and wild live shows not seen in the capital for years and now the creators of WOOF., a brilliant and mind-bending debut album. A thrilling blend of electro-punk, rock’n’roll snarling, techno soundscapes, industrial-pop and rave euphoria, WOOF. is music for letting go to or, in the words of frontman Joe Love, “screaming-into-a-pillow music”.

  • 2Closer to God
  • 3Wither
  • 4Clowns
  • 5King of the Slugs
  • 6All the Same
  • 7I am the King
