Equal measures chaotic and comical, new single No Fun from Declan Welsh & The Decadent West is a snarky riposte to all the pouters and posers found to be draining the life from your typical Glasgow party.
“From the appropriation of Scottish working class ‘Buckfast’ culture, to that one guy wearing a bucket hat ironically blaring out 80’s cheese, desperate to be the life of the party, ‘No Fun’ takes aim at the various forms of ‘party chat’ encountered in a Glasgow flat at 3am.”

Declan explains: “No Fun’ is about the inflated self importance of the kind of people who get full of it at a party and corner you to tell you about how they went on holiday and seen “the real Thailand”.
“It’s about folk with no self awareness. It’s about people who think they are the kings of all banter because they put on a funny hat at 3am. It’s about people who say the word sesh with no hint of irony. It’s about people who say the word sesh ironically. It’s about people who say the word sesh.”
The new video for No Fun follows a first play for the track on BBC Radio 1 by Jack Saunders and a prolific spell of activity for the fast-ascending Glaswegian outfit.
The band have just rounded off their tour with a first appearance at this year’s Glastonbury Festival.
No Fun also follows Absurd and Different Strokes as the latest single to emerge from their debut album: Cheaply Bought, Expensively Sold; which has recently been confirmed for release on 18th October 2019 via the Modern Sky UK label.
