Eora/Sydney-based punk rock quintet FANGZ have just revealed their frenetic single Wasting Time and its accompanying B-side Nothing To Lose'. The tracks arrive as the band hits the road with one of their biggest inspirations, Canadian hardcore legends, Cancer Bats.  It's the latest in an mpressive list of accomplishments for a band that very nearly didn't exist. As the band explains in this Maniacs exclusive feature, FANGZ was born out of a make-or-break moment for its founding members and required them to defy not only the notion of being 'too old' to 'make it' but overcome the bleak reality of being stranded at Heathrow Airport with their musical hopes and dreams in tatters.
