Fuck Buttons have announced that the second single to be taken from their recent album ‘Slow Focus’ will be opener ‘Brainfreeze’ – dropping 7th October via ATP Recordings. Stream it below. Fuck Buttons kick off their UK tour on Sunday, 8th September with support coming from The Haxan Cloak followed by a string of dates on the content throughout October and November.
‘Brainfreeze’ will be released on a limited edition clear-vinyl 12” single (2,000 copies worldwide, each including a download code) and as a 2-track Digital Download single, both of which will include the full 8-minute version of ‘Brainfreeze’ as well as a brand new additional track called ‘Royal Flush’.

After a busy summer of UK and European festival shows, including rapturously-received headline slots on the Park Stage at Glastonbury, The Other Stage at Green Man, the ATP Stage at Primavera Sound (Spain) and at Route du Rock (France), Fuck Buttons now set out to promote Slow Focus in full. They start their UK & Ireland tour in Birmingham on Sunday 8th September and finish with a sold-out show at London’s Electric Ballroom on Tuesday 17th September before heading straight to Paris on Thursday 19th to commence further tours of continental Europe, North and South America, Australia and Scandinavia that will see them on the road until late November 2013. Support on the UK & Dublin dates will be The Haxan Cloak with additional support from Forrests in Dublin and London; in continental Europe, support comes from Eaux in Paris, with Zan Lyons supporting at several non-festival shows on the rest of the tour.
‘Brainfreeze’ is available on 7th October 2013 via ATP Recordings and will be available digitally and clear 12″ vinyl
