Gardens & Villa are back already, following 2014's spectacular record Dunes with two new singles for the forthcoming album Music For Dogs which is due out August 21st via Secretly Canadian.
One of the tracks, "Fixations" comes with a bizarre music video that's a cross between the Warhol-esque psychedelic party scene in Midnight Cowboy and MGMT's "Flash Delirium," featuring costumes, vomit, and a particularly aggressive drone. "Fixations," and the other new song "Everybody" to a lesser extent, show Gardens & Villa seem to be moving away from the more hard-hitting and dramatic sounds of their last LP and subsequent Televisor EP for a more light and playful vibe.
Check out both singles, the video, Music For Dogs cover art, and tour dates below.
