Band records less than one second-long song

A Guernsey band believes its newly released song, Don't Let The Fire Go Out, which is under one second-long, could be the shortest song in the world.

Coastal Fire Department has made an unofficial attempt to beat the world record set by Napalm Deaths' You Suffer, which is 1.316 seconds-long.

Band member Ollie Goddard said he contacted Guinness World Records and was told the category had been closed after it had been "inundated by requests".

He said the song was "just a bit of fun" and despite being less than a second, still contained lyrics, a chord change, and all three band members.
