Good Shoes 'No Hope, No Future' video released

Good Shoes return with their first single from their forthcoming second album 'No Hope, No Future', due for release on 18th January 2010.

'Under Control' precedes the album on the 11th January 2010, released as a 7" and download with accompanying b-side 'Talk'.

Written, recorded and produced by the band in various friend's basements and bedroom studios (in Morden naturally), they follow up their 2007 debut 'Think Before You Speak'. 'No Hope, No Future' has a character, charm and edge only Good Shoes could pull off.

Like all good second albums should be, there's a progression – a heavier sound, more intricate, a little more atmospheric and moody. Then there are those tracks, so very Good Shoes, which are so brimming with energy and riffs that crawl under your very skin and act like a magnetic force hauling you to the dance floor. The kind of songs that made everyone fall in love with Good Shoes to begin with.

'Under Control' within minutes of it's throbbing, disco-flecked opening chords is without doubt such a song. And perfectly complementing it is b-side 'Talk' with its rolling drums and spiraling twists and turns through jaunty to the angular. It's love at first listen all over again.
