Australian indie-pop group Methyl Ethel today reveal new single/video "Ubu" - the second taste of upcoming second LP Everything Is Forgotten.
The single - the follow up to November's "No. 28" - is "inspired by Alfred Jarry's surrealist play Ubu Roi" and comes with accompanying visuals directed by Paxi. Like the rest of the album it was written and recorded by frontman Jake Webb and produced with James Ford (Foals, Arctic Monkeys).
Everything Is Forgotten follows debut Oh Inhuman Spectacle (which contains the deliriously good "Idée Fixe").
Methyl Ethel are set to head up North for European and North American live shows this spring - find out more.
Tracklist:
- Drink Wine
- Ubu
- No. 28
- Femme Maison/One Man House
- L'Heure des Sorcières
- Act Of Contrition
- Groundswell
- Hyakki Yakō
- Summer Moon
- Weeds Through The Rind
- Schlager
Everything Is Forgotten is released 3 March via 4AD.
