FAT WHITE FAMILY have today announced details of Konk If You're Lonely: Fat White Family live at Konk Studios, an album featuring their most incendiary moments recorded live in one day at London's Konk Studios.

Released on Friday 12th December 2025, the album is the latest instalment in the Domino Documents series – featuring a live studio recording of a band at the peak of their powers, capturing their ever-evolving arrangements in high fidelity, recorded in a day at a world class studio in London.  A release in the Domino Documents series is a bottling of magic, a snapshot of a moment in time that is over in a flash but captured for eternity.

Fat White Family ended 2024 with a trio of sold-out "Counter-Vortex 360°" shows at the Colour Factory in Hackney Wick. For these shows, the band played in the middle of the room on a square stage that resembled a boxing ring with the audience gathered around them on all sides. The shows were typically raucous affairs but, due in part to the novel setup of the room, there was an added intimacy between the band and their fans; an understanding that they were all in this together. The shows were, of course, complete triumphs, yet another file in the dossier marked 'The best live band in the country'. A few days after these shows, the band headed to London's Konk Studios to get the set down for posterity's sake.

What emerges is a document of a band at the top of their game, oozing swagger and controlled abandon. The Fat White Family cast has forever been a revolving door of interesting and lively characters, each iteration brilliant in its own right, but they have never sounded better than on the 13 career-spanning tracks that make up Konk If You're Lonely. The anarchic crescendo to 'Hits Hits Hits',  a song from 2016's Songs for our Mothers, marries the bewitchment of an early-days Stones R&B cover with just the right amount of the band's signature recklessness, while the sheer discordant ferocity of 'I Am Mark E Smith' makes it just about the perfect tribute to the man himself. The twitchy squawks of 'Polygamy Is Only For The Chief', from last year's Forgiveness Is Yours, are rendered truly demonic here, whereas the inclusion of an unreleased track, 'Parisian Heatwave', gives us a glimpse into which path the band will take next.
