Norway's Sløtface have dropped their first new single in two years "Telepathetic".

The anthemic new offering is the group's first since their 2017 debut album Try Not To Freak Out, and is co-produced with Odd Martin Skålne (Sigrid, Aurora).

Bassist Lasse Lokøy says of the new single, "It was written in approximately two hours, at 11 in the evening, after a full day of recording. Most of us don’t remember any of it because we were so tired."

Vocalist Haley Shea adds, "The lyrics were something I’d been trying to fit somewhere on the record throughout the process. The song is about the feeling, usually when you’re growing up, or working a job you don’t like, or other halfway points where it just feels like everything good is happening in other places from where you are. It’s about how ineffectual it is to wait around and hope for things to happen, about how you have to make things happen, but also about the silly fear that if you dream about something it might not happen."

"Telepathetic" is out now. Sløtface have announced a headline show at London's Electrowerkz on 25 June. Find out more.
