Indie band Friedberg have released the zany music video ‘Hardcore Workout Queen’, the title track of their upcoming debut album.

‘Hardcore Workout Queen’ is set to drop November 8 via Clouds Hill. The video, directed by the Nüesch Sisters, features several magazines coming to life – including a mock NME Cover.

Speaking about the track, Austrian-born frontwoman Anna Friedberg shared: “It’s about being the Champion of the slobs, whilst cheering for the Hardcore Workout Queens, who run past your bedroom window early morning, when you’re just tucking into your second breakfast. It’s kind of you do you and I do me and maybe one day we’ll switch.

“It’s the perfect song to listen to whether you’ve got a protein shake or a beer in your hand, whether you’ve got a popcorn machine or a rowing machine in your home, whether you’re a wake and baker or a record breaker.” Take a look at the video and see the album’s full tracklist below:

Friedberg’s ‘Hardcore Workout Queen’ tracklist is:

‘100 Times’

‘Venice 142’
‘Hardcore Workout Queen’

Friedberg was formed in 2019 by lead singer Anna Friedberg, along with London/Berlin-based Emily Linden (guitar, vocals), Cheryl Pinero (bass, vocals) and Fifi Dewey (drums). Their song ‘Go Wild’ previously featured on the FIFA 2020 soundtrack, along with BBC series Normal People.

Since then, the band have released their 2021 debut EP ‘Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah’. Friedberg have also dropped a string of singles this year including ‘Hello’, ‘My Best Friend’ and ‘The Greatest’.

They have also previously supported Hot Chip on their US tour in 2022 and Placebo last June.
