Big Heet [Ex-Breathers] share ‘Failure At Work’ via Uproxx

By James Davenport

Big Heet, the Tallahassee quartet led by former Ex-Breathers guitarist/vocalist David Settle, are sharing their new single ‘Failure at Work’ via Uproxx. Taken from the band’s upcoming full-length debut, ‘On A Wire’, due out October 20th via the Exploding In Sound Records Tape Club.

Uproxx called the single, “a slow-burning track that exceeds five minutes in its build toward a thrashing climax where Settle’s screams are masked by fuzzy guitars and distorted bass. Suddenly, the sound abruptly breaks, there is silence, and then a more toned back version of Big Heet re-enters to take the song full circle.”

Big Heet’s David Settle added:

“I know so many people of my generation whose lives have been stagnated by student debt and mindless jobs with no growth and an economy wrecked by previous generations. I found myself completely depressed at a dead-end job that I only stayed at because it financially supported personal dreams that led nowhere in the end. Often I wonder if I would’ve been better off preparing for a more successful and only slightly less shitty career with way less personal gratification. What kind of choice is that?”
