East London punks Flats adopted the manifesto of writing only fast, short and heavy songs, which quickly caught the attention of plenty of influential people. Klaxons' Jamie Reynolds co-produced their first EP and one of their shows was attended by J Mascis, J Spaceman and Kevin Shields. Their single 'Never Again' was the first release on Sweat Shop Records, the band's own imprint on One Little Independent. Flats were also invited to support Morrissey on his June 2011 tour.

Better Living marks a progression from the band's early material and takes influence from a wide range of heavy guitar music with nods towards the likes of Black Sabbath, Napalm Death, Blue Cheer, Crass, Heresy, Saint Vitus, Darkthrone, Anthrax and Discharge. The LP features twelve brand new tracks including the single 'Country' / 'Moonwalk' and their cover of Hellhammer's 'Crucifixion'.
