The Game (End Of Fashion Song)
"The Game" is the fourth single (music), single by Australian band End of Fashion, taken from their debut album, ''End of Fashion (album), End of Fashion''. It was released on 5 June 2006 on EMI Music peaking at No. 13 on the ARIA charts, Australian Singles Charts, the band's highest charting single to date. Reception Nick Craig is of FasterLouder states "Lyrically, "The Game" is about relationships, and ill-fated ones at that." "Musically, End of Fashion sound strong on this track, exhibiting all the elements that have made them a competent band. Burford snarls in his delivery, and the guitars and bass lock in to a fast driving rhythm. There’s some interesting synth beats introduced towards the end, but they are quickly cut short by a thunderous vocal roar. Rapid fire drumming closes the song, plus zappy computer sound effects to reinforce the ‘game’ theme, which also highlight a slick production element that you won’t find in the live show." Hybrid Music's Rachel Fredri ...

Fussy (song)
"Fussy" is the first single by Australian pop rock band End of Fashion, from their second album, '' Book of Lies''. It was released on 30 August 2008 on EMI Music. It was the band's first release in over two years. Justin Burford describes "Fussy" as "the struggle between the light and dark sides of human personality". The Vine Magazine described it as "sultry backing vocals, Spanish trumpet and rhythmic acoustic guitar, 'Fussy’ is the perfect way to reintroduce End Of Fashion into the musical fray". Dwarf Magazine described it as "starting with much gusto and energy, the drum beat almost like riding a horse with the horns adding a bit of excitement during the journey". Despite being added to radio station playlists around Australia within weeks of its release the single peaked at #47 on the Australian Singles charts. Burford later attributed this to the fact that national youth broadcaster, Triple J, refused to play the song on-air. "Our lead single, "Fussy" was even openly de ...

Single (music)
In music, a single is a type of release, typically a song recording of fewer tracks than an LP record or an album. One can be released for sale to the public in a variety of formats. In most cases, a single is a song that is released separately from an album, although it usually also appears on an album. In other cases a recording released as a single may not appear on an album. Despite being referred to as a single, in the era of music downloads, singles can include up to as many as three tracks. The biggest digital music distributor, the iTunes Store, accepts as many as three tracks that are less than ten minutes each as a single. Any more than three tracks on a musical release or thirty minutes in total running time is an extended play (EP) or, if over six tracks long, an album. Historically, when mainstream music was purchased via vinyl records, singles would be released double-sided, i.e. there was an A-side and a B-side, on which two songs would appear, one on each si ...
