Das Koolies have shared a music video for their new seven-minute song, “A Ride” which is a part of their upcoming album, DK.01. This LP is due out September 22 via Strangetown/Amplify. The band, who are four-fifths of Super Furry Animals—Huw ‘Bunf’ Bunford, Cian Ciarán, Dafydd Leuan, and Guto Pryc (only frontman Gruff Rhys is missing)—shared this in the wake of their recent announcement that they will be making three in-store appearances at UK Rough Trade Shops. Check out the video below, followed by upcoming performance dates.

DK.01 was produced by Tom Forrest (Duke Dumont, Basement Jaxx) and Marta Salogni (Bjork, Depeche Mode). DK.01will be released in multiple physical formats, including Dinked collectors’ edition recycled coloured vinyl with bonus 7-inch, Bandcamp and Indies recycled coloured vinyl, black recycled double vinyl, CD, and digital.

Of “A Ride,” the band collectively say in a press release: “Maybe this one’s about thieves in public school uniforms and their tax haven stashes. The start was pure electronic. Then the vocals pushed open a door. What was behind it was kind of bizarre. But, then, that’s music.”

Das Koolies previously shared their EP, The Condemned, earlier this year.

Das Koolies Tour Dates:

Fri 22 Sep – Rough Trade East, London Mon 2 Oct – Rough Trade Bristol Tue 3 Oct – Rough Trade Nottingham

    Hey, I just noticed this is [email protected]! There is little sense in posting there from lemmy.world, because we’re defederated. The post will only be visible for people like me, who are on lemmy.world but still subscribed to the beehaw community. I think it’s enough to post it to [email protected] as you also did. (That does explain though why I still get occasional posts on the beehaw communities I’m subscribed to, although we’re defederated!)
