UK band Hard-Fi have poked fun at Easy Life’s recent name change to Hard Life. The latter band revealed their new moniker in response to a legal battle with easyJet last year. After their final gig as Easy Life, in which fans chanted “fuck easyJet,” the band changed their name to Hard Life. Hard-Fi responded to the news with a tweet, quoting an NME interview with Murray Matravers: “Er… lads….” In the same article, Matravers joked that he had trademarked the name Hard Life and might sue Hard-Fi should they ever be sued by his band.
Previously, Hard-Fi addressed claims that Paramore’s recent hit ‘C’est Comme Ca’ resembled their 2006 single ‘Hard to Beat.’ Fans thought the songs’ opening chords sounded similar when ‘C’est Comme Ca’ was initially released. Hard-Fi responded to a fan suggesting they sue Paramore with a single embarrassed emoji. The band also recently announced their first single in a decade, ‘Don’t Go Making Plans,’ from their upcoming EP of the same name. The song’s themes were initially inspired by the UK Government’s attempts to criminalize many aspects of popular protest through the 2022 Public Order Act.
Hard-Fi will go on tour later in November, concluding with a date at London’s Roundhouse. Fans can purchase tickets and view the full list of tour dates through Ticketmaster
