Reverend And The Makers have officially teamed up with Robbie Williams for their latest single, ‘Fucked Up’. The track serves as the final preview of the band’s highly anticipated eighth studio album, Is This How Happiness Feels?, which is scheduled for release on May 8 via Distiller.

The song features frontman Jon McClure and Williams trading verses that candidly reflect on their respective chaotic youths and the perils of excess. The collaboration follows a growing friendship between the two artists, sparked after Williams publicly praised ‘You Again’ by The Lottery Winners—a track written by McClure. This mutual respect led to the band joining Williams on his recent ‘Long 90s’ UK tour, and Williams previously highlighted the group as a must-see act at Glastonbury.

“We’d both been through a lot of mad stuff,” McClure explained regarding the creative process. “And then you grow as a person, don’t you? Rob’s the soundest fella in the music game. A real pleasure to collab with him.”

The music video for ‘Fucked Up’, directed by Charlie Lightening, is available to watch below:

Is This How Happiness Feels? follows the band’s successful top 10 album Heatwave In The Cold North. Describing the new record, McClure noted: “This album has been a labour of love owing to personal reasons but has emerged as a joyous triumph. It’s easily the best thing we’ve ever done and will surprise a few people too.”

Beyond his musical output, McClure has been vocal about his personal growth, including his recent diagnosis with ADHD. Reflecting on his career, he shared: “Now I understand myself, ADHD is like a special power I’ve not known how to harness before. In my case, before being diagnosed, ADHD left me taking a lot longer to grow up and be responsible. Now I have, I feel I can do anything.”
