Footprints in the Custard are five young(ish) gentlemen based in Manchester, continuing to write and perform silly songs about various bodily functions, outlandish situations and bears.
The music takes the form of fast punky metal songs with lots of riffs, shouting and solos, designed to get folk boogying down and generally wondering why the hell they’re doing it.
It’s all in bad taste and there are mankinis and tutus involved, along with various inflatables and sometimes cream. But it’s a laugh and a few of the band members might even know what they’re doing.
FitC formed in the summer of 2006 and have managed, after a 4 year hiatus, to go unbelievably from strength to strength, with an impressive live show and a back catalogue of two albums, an EP and a Christmas single.
The new album The Descent of Decency is due out early 2016, with a UK tour planned for shortly afterwards.
