Shames English back in style

Five years ago it was a renaissance, a breath of fresh air in rock, with five boys from London devastating every scene that came their way. Today, shame is still the same, but with endless variety and emotions at their disposal. Food for worms, their third album, explores human emotions at their most collective and universal, spinning an allegory with deep friendships not yet thirty years old. Shame’s lead singer Charlie Stein puts it plainly: “I amHe shows me more interest in the outside world now and it’s tiring to see you all the time“.

And to sing his lines, Charlie, so charming in real life, so insufferable on stage, fell silent: “I don’t shout so much anymore, I used to do so much!”. Especially the effect of the first song of his career, which can be heard in many titles. Despite everything, the fury of shame always asks to be expressed in the moments they love: concerts. Sean Coyle-Smith, guitarist: “In fact, we haven’t really promoted an album since 2018… so we’re all geared up for this huge concert marathon that awaits us this year.“. And in the process, Charlie: “There’s nothing better than playing a newly released album live, it’s been a long time since we’ve been able to do that, it’s really exciting.“.

We want to be satisfied with our work, and for us it is by performing

And the result is the same as their previous two best records: rock lives well, thank goodness.
