Desire are back with "Black Latex", the second single to be shared from their first album in 11 years, Escape.
"Black Latex" lands after the album title-track "Escape", which was released earlier this month.
The new single sees vocalist Megan Louise narrate the Johnny Jewel-directed video in both French and English over a cinematic, sci-fi instrumental.
The band made their comeback last year with "Tears From Heaven", their first single in nine years. "Tears From Heaven" won't feature on their second album.
Escape will be Desire's first album in 11 years, after their 2009 debut II. The album is produced by Johnny Jewel.
"Black Latex" is out now. Desire's Escape album will be released via Italians Do It Better this summer.
