Little Dragon, the electronic/soul synth-pop band from Sweden announced last week the release of their new album, Season High, due out April 14th via Loma Vista. In an interview with Dazed, lead singer Yukimi Nagano, expressed the band’s desire for this album to break away from commercial conformity and how they “tried to not give a fuck about anything.”
Along with this announcement they dropped the video to their new single, “Sweet.” They definitely aren’t conforming to commercial norms in this video, which pictures Nagano in lavish, bejeweled costumes amidst a flurry of psychedelic 3D effects and UFO’s, whilst showcasing sites from their picturesque home city, Gothenburg. Check out the video, track list and tour dates below.
