Indie charmers Leif Erikson have shared "Concrete and Steel", the latest preview of their upcoming debut "mini-album".
The self-titled collection will also feature the rather excellent "Get Free".
"Concrete and Steel" is another solid dream-pop excursion. Filled with the metronomic tick-tock of stadium rock percussion and endless webs of reverberating guitar, Leif Erikson nod to forebears - such as The War On Drugs - while carving their own path into the dark distance with introspection and bluesy tilts.
The band have a UK tour planned for later this year, beginning at London's Oslo in September and ending in Brighton on 11 November. Find out more.
The Leif Erikson mini-album is out 25 August via Arts & Crafts.
