FIZZ explore the experience of womanhood and femininity on "As Good As It Gets"
FIZZ have today shared their fourth single, "As Good As It Gets", which is taken from their debut album The Secret To Life.
"As Good As It Gets" sees Greta Isaac taking the lead vocals, following previous singles "High In Brighton", "Hell of a Ride", and "Close One", which had her other bandmates – dodie, Orla Gartland, and Martin Luke Brown – at the helm.
“"As Good As It Gets" is the result of years of being told to smile, of being interrupted and cut across, patronising tones and having your space invaded - a cry for having to be grateful for the gift of absolutely nothing. This song serves as a unified call of disdain and our belief that we deserve more than we think, always," the band say.
"As we were writing this song, it became clear that this song stemmed from the experience of womanhood and femininity and so Martin felt it was right to pull back from singing and give us the space we needed to fully realise the song.
"We felt unified in our experience when we sang this together, four women around a mic (including Soren Bryce who engineered the album) with Greta fronting. Singing this felt like opening a valve after years of built up pressure and tension; it was cathartic and healing.”
"As Good As It Gets" is out now. FIZZ’s debut album The Secret To Life will be released on 15 September via Decca Records, and is available to pre-order.
