Dark Horses return with a brand new single, XIII scheduled for release on November 24th, right before the band will head out on tour with Black Rebel Motorcycle Club for the weeks to come.
The British sextet has two full length albums, an EP and a handful of singles behind it so far, and have previously served live as the support of bands such as The Dandy Warhols, Beck, Kasabian and Sigur Rós.
The tenacious XIII jumps out with its dark but accessible indie rock nature, and recalls some of the many faces of Primal Scream, mostly from 1999 on, and also the spirit of their latest tour allies, BRMC. Its pulsating synths and the resolute vocal delivery, courtesy of singer Lisa Elle, are the stars of the single's exciting retro-futuristic aura, while its electronica and krautrock touches add even more to its seductiveness.
