The indie band - made up of Faris Badwan, Rhys Webb, Tom Furse, Joshua Third and Joe Spurgeon - released their new single, Lout , a heavy industrial track, which is taken from their upcoming three-song EP of the same name.
A departure from their most recent music, including 2017 LP, V - which was produced by studio wizard Paul Epworth - the group have self-produced the mini album.
Frontman Faris explained why the band have headed back in an aggressive direction.
He said in a statement: “ Lout is about the relationship between choice and chance, compulsive risk-taking and pushing your luck. As a band, particularly live, we’ve always had an aggressive side and as we began writing new songs it became clear that we were heading in that direction.”
