FIZZ have dropped a fourth single from their upcoming debut album.

As Good As It Gets will appear on 'The Secret To Life', out via Decca Records on September 15, alongside the previously released cuts Close One, High In Brighton and Hell Of A Ride.

Marking one of the louder, eclectic moments on the record, the track combines indie-pop with art-rock, opening with ethereal vocal harmonies before barrelling into an unabashed, percussion-heavy climax. The band said:

"As Good As It Gets is the result of years of being told to smile, of being interrupted and cut across, patronising tones and having your space invaded - a cry for having to be grateful for the gift of absolutely nothing. This song serves as a unified call of disdain and our belief that we deserve more than we think, always.

"As we were writing this song, it became clear that this song stemmed from the experience of womanhood and femininity and so Martin felt it was right to pull back from singing and give us the space we needed to fully realise the song.

"We felt unified in our experience when we sang this together, four women around a mic (including Soren Bryce who engineered the album) with Greta fronting. Singing this felt like opening a valve after years of built-up pressure and tension; it was cathartic and healing."

The four-piece — Dodie, Orla Gartland, Greta Isaac and Martin Luke Brown — will hit the road for The Secret To Life Tour of the UK and Ireland in late September.
