Handsome Furs is an indie rock band from Montreal, Canada. The band is comprised of husband/wife duo Dan Boeckner, from Wolf Parade and Atlas Strategic, and short story writer, Alexei Perry. The band signed on to Sub Pop Records in late 2006, and released their first full-length album, Plague Park, in 2007.
The band’s name comes from the title of a short story that Alexei was writing at the time of band’s conception.[1]
In a December 2007 interview, Dan revealed that Handsome Furs are in the writing stages of a new full-length album, tentatively called Face Control: “When Alexei and I got back from Russia we were going to do an EP, but we’re also going to do a full album of new songs because we have so many. It’s going to be different than the last record… The last one was so intense and heavy in one direction that we wanted to do something different…”[2] The inspiration behind Face Control involves a peculiar aspect of club culture they observed while on tour in Eastern Europe: if party goers wish to reserve a table at a bar in Moscow, they must pay large sums of money through PayPal or with cash; however, their seat is still not guaranteed - bouncers have to authority to turn reserved patrons away from the bar based solely on appearance, which has been coined “face control”.[2]
