Factory Floor - 'Bipolar'

Factory Floor - 'Bipolar'

Moody black-and-white images, messages of discontentment and disappointment, Factory Floor aren’t opening any discos anytime soon with their dooms-day post punk. If everyone received a pound for thinking about Joy Division or The Fall whilst listening to ‘Bipolar’, poverty would be wiped out and none of the world leaders would give a shit about inflation anymore. That’s not what Factory Floor are about though. With more mumbling and more repetition than their counterparts, it’s easy to be put off but you can tell whilst listening to b-side ‘You Were Always Wrong’ and the thrashing climax of ‘Bipolar’ that there’s a hell of a lot more to this band than first suggested. We just have to wait with expectant appetites as this isn’t quite it.

Released 28/04/08 on Outside Sound.

  • i have just been on there myspace to check them out and completely agree more to Factory Floor than Bipolar. The single is good but the B Side is amazing. Is it wrong to dance to that one? I will be finding the nearest disco and insisting they play the B side.
