It seems the expression "Do it yourself" was coined for Fickle Friends. This indie pop band from Brighton is releasing its second album. Their first, *You Are Someone Else*, reached number 9 in the UK charts upon its release in 2018. An English newspaper once said about it: 'Too indie to be truly pop. Too pop to be indie.' But that is precisely the ingredient that makes it so relevant in our strange times. With an innate sense for catchy riffs, intelligent lyrics, and a strong yet touching voice, the band shows great promise. Above all, Fickle Friends seem to have found the secret recipe to produce 4.0 hits on an assembly line and outcompete Haim, who excel in a similar style, on their own turf.
