The post-punk trio will embark upon a tour in support of Useless Coordinates in May.
London transplants Drahla have revealed details of their forthcoming debut album.
Useless Coordinates is slated to arrive on May 3rd through Brooklyn-based independent label Captured Tracks, whose roster the band joined during the final months of 2017.
Preceding the album, ‘Stimulus For Living’ continues the lineage of enthralling and disorientating, skeletal post-punk that was set with the trio’s previous EPs, and is further punctuated by arresting flourishes of saxophone courtesy of XAM Duo’s Christopher Duffin.
Coinciding with the single is a video that the band describe as “a visual composition that reflects the lyric content of the track. Based upon abstracted ideas and thought, challenging standardised format and perception.”
Watch below.
In support of the album’s release, Drahla will perform at venues throughout the UK in May with accompaniment from South London garage rock reprobates Sleep Eaters. View their itinerary and the track list for Useless Coordinates below.
