Yuck fire off heavyweight track "Cannonball" ahead of new LP

02 February 2016, 16:18 | Written by Laurence Day

Yuck have revealed "Cannonball", the latest single from upcoming long player Stranger Things.

"Cannonball" links up with "Hearts In Motion" and "Hold Me Closer" in teasing the band's new record.

Speaking about the album, singer/guitarist Max Bloom says:

“The band feels better now than it ever has. We recorded the drums in a rehearsal studio by our house, which we’ve rehearsed at for ages. Everything else was done at my parent’s house - in the same room we recorded the first record, which wasn’t an intentional thing. It’s just the only quiet space that we have access to in London! Mostly I wanted to make the in a space that I was comfortable in. I wanted no one else involved - just me and Ed and Mariko and Johnny. I just wanted to get on with it and make something that was truly us and not affected by any outside influences. We basically spent no money on the record and it was a really relaxed way of doing things. I really, really like it. I’m more proud of it than anything we’ve ever done.”

Stranger Things is out on 26 February. The LP is the follow up to 2013's Glow & Behold.
