London six-piece Melt Yourself Down have unveiled their first new single in two years, "Boot And Spleen".
"Boot And Spleen" is inspired by the history of British colonialism in India, and is their first offering since 2016's Last Evenings On Earth.
Pete Wareham of the group says of their new music, "So much has changed in the world since we started writing in 2016. We couldn’t ignore any of it and this new music is borne from our feelings of cultural restlessness in this constantly shifting global climate."
"Boot And Spleen" is out now via Decca Records. Melt Yourself Down play The Lexington in London tonight (17 July). Find out more.
