Fast Blood

Hefty and soulful, complex but hook-laden, abrasive and thoughtful, the album is by far the band’s most ambitious achievement to date, a richly diverse collection of songs, all distinctive, commanding, and impactful in their own way. As a taster of the record, Fast Blood have today revealed lead single and video Sexual Healing. On this sledgehammer single, front-woman Abigail Barlow belts out a soaring vocal, dripping with frustration, as she “demands unashamedly to be fucked” in an empowered and unapologetic outburst of female sexuality and lust.

“Don’t be tempted to take this purely at face value. ‘Sexual Healing’ is a feminist anthem and a celebration of sexual independence and equality—we wanted to reimagine Black Flag’s ‘Slip It In’ from a woman’s perspective’.” (Abigail Barlow)
