Fat Dog Release New Album 'Cancel Me (I'm Tired)'

South London band Fat Dog have released a new album, Cancel Me (I'm Tired), with the announcement relayed via Japanese distributor Beatink on its official social channels. The record builds on the frantic energy and euphoric highs of the band's debut, WOOF., expanding further in scale of arrangement and sound. Alongside the release, Beatink also published a new interview with the band centered on redefining what music means in the AI era.

From WOOF. to Cancel Me (I'm Tired)

Fat Dog established themselves within the South London scene with their debut album WOOF., a record that mixed high-speed rhythms with an unhinged, live-wire feel. Beatink describes the follow-up, Cancel Me (I'm Tired), as retaining the chaotic energy of the debut while pushing toward a bolder, more extravagant scale.

Beatink's Japanese copy frames the band as South London's outsiders, adding that Fat Dog are still early in their trajectory with plenty of room left to develop.

The interview: AI and "vulnerability is more punk"

Timed to the album's release, Beatink published a new interview with Fat Dog that points directly at what comes next for the band after the chaos and intensity of their sound so far, using the AI era as a starting point to ask what music actually means now.

In the interview, the band offers the line "showing vulnerability is more punk" as a gloss on their own attitude toward music-making. The full interview is available through Beatink's official channels.
