Whereas sleaze-mired, country-influenced, drug-crazed garage punks the Fat Whites are a 'celebration of everything that is wrong in life', Insecure Men, who blend together exotica, easy listening, lounge and timeless pop music, are, by comparison at least, the last word in wholesomeness.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eThe band originally formed in 2015 in the cramped confines of The Queens Head pub, Stockwell, in the Fat White Family's notorious South London 'practice space'. Saul recorded all of the songs he wrote at The Queens Head onto tape at Sean Lennon's studio in upstate New York. This tape, recorded on his own in a corridor onto an ancient Tascam while in a foul mood with his mates, essentially became Insecure Men's self-titled debut album as more layers were dubbed over the top until nothing of the original demos remained.   Saul lists some of the influences on their sound, mentioning the exotica of Arthur Lyman, the early electronic pop of Perrey and Kingsley, the supreme smoothness of The Carpenters, the songwriting chops of Harry Nilsson and the hypnagogic uncanniness conjured up by David Lynch, describing what they do as 'pretty music with a dark underbelly to it'.\u003cp\u003eSubaru Nights\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTeenage Toy\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll Women Love Me\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMekong Glitter\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeathrow\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Don't Wanna Dance\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Saddest Man in Penge\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUlster\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCliff Has Left The Building\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhitney Houston and I\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuried in the Bleak\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55322647757185,"sku":"736734","price":12.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51Q-WJG6kuL._SL1500.jpg?v=1770325520","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/736734","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
