Middle Kids drop new single 'Terrible News'

With their eagerly-awaited new album just over a month away, Middle Kids have now dropped the next cut to be lifted from their forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Terrible News' is accompanied by a brilliant new video, directed by Nick Mckk and Claire Giuffre, and follows on from the previously shared tracks 'Dramamine', 'Bootleg Firecracker', 'Highlands' and 'Bend' in previewing their new LP 'Faith Crisis Pt 1', which is out on the 16th February via Lucky Number.

Speaking about the new offering, vocalist Hannah Joy said, “There was a lot of confusion and information and rules and anger and people judging people and loss and distrust. I eventually felt so overwhelmed by all the noise, I couldn’t take it anymore. The guitars are kinda shouty too or maybe just urgent. I wanted to stack a lot of guitar layers to create almost a guitar choir. We got a friend Brendan Champion to play some brass on it which really elevates the song as it marches along.”
