Hard-Fi announce new EP 'Don't Go Making Plans'

After recently returning for a string of reunion shows this past year, Hari-Fi have now announced their plans for a new EP, arriving later this year.

The new collection 'Don't Go Making Plans' marks their first piece of new material since 2011's 'Killer Sounds', is being previewed by the title-track, and is set to be released on the 1st November via Ignition Records.

Speaking about the new offering, frontman Richard Archer said, "Don't Go Making Plans is sort of a protest song about protest, but I wanted to encapsulate that message into something that was still a pop song. A track that you can still dance to in a club or play on the radio, because a song like that you can make a real connection to and circumnavigates the pointless restrictions being put in our way. Governments passing laws to stop protests that 'cause more than minor disruption feels like something out of a dystopian film. The whole point of protest is disruption. You're trying to interrupt the inevitable flow of things, to encourage the people running the country to think again, especially when you have a government that doesn't seem to be bothered by what people actually need."
