24/11/17 - FSOLDigital Black Friday sale

Many FSOLDigital items are at reduced prices for the Black Friday weekend, running through to midnight on Sunday 26th November. There's actually a 'Black Friday' category linked to from the email the band have sent out, but it just leads to a 404 error page, so your best option is just to travel over to FSOLDigital and have a browse for yourself. All reduced items - physical and downloads - are marked with a 'sale!' signifier.

23/11/17 - Guinness World Records

FSOL have (finally) been awarded Guinness World Records for 'The first world tour by a group without leaving the studio', 'The first world tour featuring live shows played down telephone wires' and, most noteworthy, 'The first internet music download', for their single Lifeforms in June 1994.

01/11/17 - Lifeforms LP delayed but date confirmed

The Lifeforms double LP repress will be released on 26th January 2018. This is possibly a disappointment to those hoping for an October or November release, as promised, but maybe not surprising to those of us who are used to initial FSOL release dates being not entirely accurate. Pop the date in your diaries!
