Shame – “Six-Pack”

Pooneh Ghana

Right before the end-of-year holiday pileup, Shame announced a new album, Food For Worms, and shared its lead single “Fingers Of Steel.” Their follow-up to 2021’s Drunk Pink Tank is out at the end of February, and today the UK band is back with a second single, the gnarled and energetic “Six-Pack.”

“Six-Pack’ is essentially the opposite of a Room 101; instead it’s a room where all your wildest desires can come true and will be showered upon you,” the group’s Charlie Steen said in a statement. “Be it commodities, self-obsession, foods and B-lister celebrities, it’ll all be there if you want it to. You’ve done time behind bars and now you’re making time in-front of them. It’s time to make up for anything you’ve lost or wasted, it’s time to get it all.”

The track comes with a music video directed by Gilbert Bannerman and animated by Cyrus Hayley, which depicts a faux video game starring Napoleon. Check it out below.
