FEWS

FEWS isn't your run-of-the-mill artist. This British-Swedish post-punk band, which has largely remained under the radar since its inception, has gradually been making waves in the independent music scene, and boy, what a ruckus they're making! Every bit as intriguing as their enigmatic aura is their intense, adrenaline-fuelled music – an arresting concoction of post-punk and krautrock underscored by propulsive rhythms, dissonant guitars, and dark, moody atmospherics.

Among their most significant contributions are their highly cinematic music videos, notably "More Than Ever" and "Business Man", helmed by their drummer, Fred Rundqvist. These aren’t just random visual accompaniments to songs, they're mini-movies loaded with heads of character, suspense and storytelling finesse. The seemingly simple concept of "More Than Ever” is elevated through Rundqvist's keen eye and deft capability to use minimal resources to craft maximal impact. It features the band’s performance interrupted by unexplained blackouts creating mystery which you wouldn't expect from a typical band performance video. “Business Man” on the other hand takes you on a surreal journey through a corporate dystopia featuring mannequin-like businessmen, again showcasing Rundqvist’s knack to turn a simple concept into a haunting visual spectacle.

Here's an interesting nugget: their music videos are shot entirely using iPhones! Yes, you read that right. This is a band that’s not just redefining the sound of post-punk for a new generation, but also proving that you don't need high-end equipment to create stunning, thought-provoking visual narratives. And the cherry on top? The videos are perfectly synched to their edgy music, creating an audio-visual experience that’s FEWS, through and through. Watch out world; this band is on a mission and it's clearly just the beginning.
