While Rolling Stones were commanding most people’s attention over at the Pyramid Stage, Bristol electronic duo, and unlikely Olympic ceremony soundtrackers, Fuck Buttons had the harsh task of trying to compete with a headline slot at Glastonbury‘s Park Stage.
But it could have been a blessing in disguise, as there doesn’t seem any shortage of people turning out to see the pair, with their ambient – yet often intense – electronica providing the perfect alternative tonic.
Check out their performance of ‘Surf Solar’ below, or watch their entire set over at the BBC website. Their new album Slow Focus is out in July.
