Last night we got a new track from Spring King – today we’ve got firm news of their second album.
Titled ‘A Better Life’, it’s the follow up to 2016’s debut ‘Tell Me If You Like To’ and is set to arrive on 17th August. It sees the band fully collaborating for the first time, rather than, as a press release describes, “looking to the talismanic Tarek Musa for the central sound”.
Tarek is still behind the desk, though, producing the record. “It’s about unifying,” he says. “Our generation is gonna be in charge one day. And I hope people’s morals outweigh any financial attractions in life. Outweigh working for a corporate giant that’s doing harm to the world.”
The news comes alongside a lyric video for ‘Us vs Them’, that new cut, which you can check out – alongside the album’s track list – below. You can read more from Spring King in the next issue of Dork, out on Friday, 8th June.
