From the band's website:

On Repeat is the second single to be released from the London four piece, comprising of Paul Cousins (vox), George Hume (guitar), James Woodley (drums) and Duncan Hillman (Keys).

Developing a distinctive sound, drawing influence from 60s and 70s soul and funk, whilst additionally incorporating 80s post-punk elements, many bloggers and critics have since aligned them with bands such as A Certain Ratio, Roxy Music and Talking Heads. Steadily becoming the hallmarks of Foreign Office's music writing the band take a danceable, groove-based approach with pop sensibilities that are juxtaposed by paranoid lyrics.
