The Murder Capital return with new single 'Can't Pretend To Know'

Following on from their highly-praised sophomore album 'Gigi's Recovery' last year, The Murder Capital have now returned to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Can't Pretend To Know' marks their first piece of new material so far this year, and was recorded in Los Angeles with producer John Congelton (St Vincent, Angel Olsen, Sharon Van Etten).

Speaking about the new offering, the band's James McGovern said, “‘Can’t Pretend To Know’ is a whip of a tune that we made to feel like a hurricane of colour and breathlessness. A surreal look at childhood innocence and all its replacers, those delicate bridges we burn as we move through the strangeways of our youth. Moulded by everything we come into contact with. Learning lessons from toys. Playing the parts that are asked of us.”
