_“Explosive energy and visceral waves of harmonic development are Forty Feet Tall’s
artistic signature. Armed with unexpected harmonic twists and volatile rhythmic 
lines that run rampant over your ear drums, their tracks are reminiscent of the 
best of British post-punk-garage rock. With a perfect combination of fuzzy psychedelia–
a tasteful tribute to Tame Impala – and catchy melodies, FFT has gifted us with 
dynamic, compelling progressions worthy of Queens of the Stone Age or Jack White.”_**–
Mundane Magazine**

_“Portland foursome Forty Feet Tall popped up to remind us all that rock ’n’ roll
is still very much alive… in the vein of Queens of the Stone Age or Arctic Monkeys,
Forty Feet Tall aren’t interested in dealing in watered-down, radio-friendly rock;
there’s a tinge of aggression around the edges of these songs.”_ – **The Alternative**

_“Formed in 2011 by a bunch of savvy teenagers from Los Angeles, the now-decade-
old group are ready to showcase their refreshing brand of 2000′s-era Incubus, Queens
Of The Stone Age and Cage The Elephant.”_ **–  The Noise**

**AUGUST 26, 2022 (Portland, OR)** – “When we went into the studio with this one,
we wanted it to feel a little rough around the edges… a little chaotic,” explains
Portland-based indie rockers **FORTY FEET TALL **about their new crazed single “
[**On & On & On**](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=6f4f1d4297&e=615f2b8493).”“
The song has an upbeat and playful vibe, but it has an underlying manic energy to
it as well that we wanted to highlight.” “The video feels like a reflection of this
as well. It’s goofy and fun but definitely has a chaotic side to it.” Taken from
their upcoming EP _**BOIL**_** **which comes out on **September 23 **_via_** Magnetic
Moon, **the song’s fast-paced video directed by **Haydn Cieri **(who has previously
filmed the band’s former videos for “[On/Off](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=fd6db17469&e=615f2b8493)”

transports the viewer into high-energy and comedic situations featuring the band
in unique outfits (and some familiar outfits) traveling through a multiverse world

**Forty Feet Tall “On & On & On”**

“The lyrics place the listener in a surrealist and bizarre world,” explains Forty
Feet Tall. “The verses are sharp and angular, the choruses hook you with their pop
sensibilities, and the song leaves you with an un-ignorable feeling of manic glee.”“
On & On & On,” follows the band’s first incendiary single “[**BOIL**](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=a59fdf0b20&e=615f2b8493)”
that continues to pull Forty Feet Tall in a new genre-bending direction.

**“On & On & On” Single Artwork**

Their upcoming EP,_** BOIL**_ progresses the band forward, launching from where 
their previous album **_A Good Distraction_**_ _left off. While that album was focused
mainly on the effects the pandemic and the political climate had on the band, this
EP harnesses the adrenaline and angst that being cooped up has created. Already 
an audience favorite, lead single “**BOIL**” starts off taut and tense, escalates
quickly, and explodes a few seconds past the one-minute mark. Memorable riffs turn
somersaults over relentless grooves on “**Big Red Bus**” and “**Nic Cage**.” At 
any moment, you may think of Archers of Loaf, the Killers, Pavement, or Pixies. 
Keep listening and uncover more surprises: the curious coda of dreamlike “**On &
On & On**,” and the subtle dynamics within “**Chin Up**.” Forty Feet Tall is a band
that consistently creates songs that are sharp and focused regardless of tempo or
volume.

Starting out further down the Pacific Coast in SoCal, Forty Feet Tall began with
a childhood friendship between Los Angeles natives **Cole Gann**_(lead singer/guitar)_
and **Jack Sehres**_(guitar)_. They started out playing a benefit to save the rainforest,
but by graduation had built a following big enough to play on stages including the
Troubadour, Roxy, and the Whiskey. College took Jack to San Francisco and Cole to
Portland, but the band continued to perform even as they focused on their studies.
Forty Feet Tall then released their self-titled album in 2014, followed a few years
later by the _**Red Dressed EP**_. Bass player **Brett Marquette** came aboard in
2017; later adding drummer **Ian Kelley** which solidified the band. Forty Feet 
Tall’s hard-edged, expansive sound drew attention from television and movie music
supervisors. Having songs featured in **Showtime’s **_**Shameless**_, several MTV
spots, in the Paramount feature **_Drunk Wedding_**, and even an **Arnold Schwarzenegger**
flick** (**_**Killing Gunther**_**)**.
