LISTEN: New alt-J tune
Hear the Miley Cyrus-sampling single, 'Hunger Of The Pine', now.
Choice Music Prize winners alt-J are primed and ready to follow-up the massive success of their An Awesome Wave debut. A couple of weeks back we got full details of their second, entitled This Is All Yours and due out September 19, as well as news that they'd be hitting Irish shores that same month.
If you can't wait until the end of summer for your alt-J fix, worry not: the band have just stuck the first single from This IS All Yours online.
Stream the trip-hoppy 'Hunger Of The Pine' – which takes a vocal sample from Miley Cyrus' '4x4' – below.
Talking to BBC Radio One jock Zane Lowe, keyboardist Gus Unger-Hamilton said of the track:
"It came quite late really - a lot of songs were ideas we've been batting around over the two years we've been touring,"
You can catch the Leeds quartet in Dublin's O2 on Saturday September 27.
