is said to be inspired by John Lennon\u2019s \u2018How Do You Sleep\u2019, \u201ccombined with frontman [and] songwriter Joe Love imagining what Anatolian rock experimentalists Alt\u0131n G\u00fcn

Winstanley and sees the band trying to avoid getting cancelled on a night out in London\u2019s Soho.

I hear things from my friends who are in other groups, and there just seems to be constant animosity elsewhere,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe get these moments where everything lines up: sometimes, we all look at each other on stage, and quietly recognise that we\u2019re playing a really good gig.
