London-based eight-piece caroline have shared "Coldplay cover" as the final preview of their forthcoming new album, caroline 2.

"This song is about the many seemingly incongruent, dissonant things that make up our experience; how we hold these multiple, contrasting things in our awareness and somehow make them into a reality that is coherent, that works together. In this case, there are two different songs, played at the same time, one in the kitchen, one in the living room of the same house in south east london. The microphone moves between the two rooms," says Jasper Llewellyn.

"Room in a room. World in a world. This video is our attempt to translate the spatial polyphony of 'Coldplay cover' into purely visual form. We made it in a day with the help of many friends and generous collaborators. Particular shout outs to Ellie Wintour for her design vision and incredible hard work making the video happen; Sam Donvito for being so open minded as DOP; Samara Langham for choreographing a full video's worth of dance and movement on the spot, and to the wonderful performers for bringing the video to life. Lastly, we'd like to thank Lewisham Arthouse for being so welcoming and letting us use their beautiful room," he continues.

caroline 2, is set to be released on 30 May via Rough Trade Records, and is available to pre-order now.
