“VICE” IS THE SECOND ALBUM OF THE ITALIAN BAND, OUT WORLDWIDE ON APRIL 15TH THROUGH KUNG FU RECORDS FOR DIGITAL DOWNLOAD, AND THROUGH INCONSAPEVOLE RECORDS ON CD.

AFTER 2 EP’S, 1 LP AND SEVERAL EUROPEAN TOURS, BIFFERS ARE BACK WITH A CRAZY ANTI-
CONCEPT: 12 BURSTS OF FUNNY AND TRAGICOMIC VIEWS OF MANKIND, WHICH MORAL IS IRONICALLY REALIZING TO HAVE LOST LIFE’S CHALLENGES.

MIXING LATE 80’S PUNK ROCK’S VERVE WITH BLACK MUSIC’S SOUL AND KILLER VOCAL HARMONIES, THEIR CONSISTENT BLEND OF ENERGY, GROOVE AND MELODY IS THE PERFECT FRAME

FOR THIS DECADENT BOHEMIAN SCENARIO, WHERE BIFFERS SUPPOSE HOW IT WOULD FEEL TO
WALLOW IN OUR VICES.

Starting from the cover, inspired from Saul Bass’s work for the movie Vertigo, the record’s point is clear: man is a slave to his vices.

Biffers analyze this condition through an ironic and tragicomic key, making up the story of a man trying to find out the reason of his sickness: blaming everything and everyone, he starts a path of introspection, leading him to realize to have lost most of his challenges in life.
This suffering is at first accepted, then in the end it's transformed in satisfaction for the addiction to the beloved vices.

Hailing from Livorno, on the west coast of Tuscany, the Biffers first became active in 2009, creating a classic punk rock sound inspired by the California scene of the late 1980's, but also drawing from influences of R&B and British indie rock. They came to the attention of Kung Fu Records when Vandals bassist and label owner Joe Escalante took notice of one of their infectious jams posted directly to the

Kung Fu Records Facebook page!

After shows in more than 10 countries Biffers are planning to tour Europe again in April, and visit the U.S. later this year for an extensive tour, playing music from Vice as well as from their earlier records.

Vice

Free fall

Shadows

And then she calls

Paranoid

Made it through

Ugly boy

Having fun

The accused

Eyes wide open

The band is active from 2009, but the current line up dates back to early 2013.
The project revolves around a typically classic punk rock sound, inspired by the California scene of the late '80s, but includes influences of R&B tradition, and Smiths’ and Housemartins’ british indie. In addition, the rumours of the informal atmosphere and festive air that you breathe at their concerts is rapidly spreading in the underground scene.
