Archie Bronson Outfit drummer Arp Cleveland describes the band’s new single as such: “‘We Are Floating’ is about flux, transition, motion, potions, disappearing notions, moving, grooving, hovering, bothering; being dazed but giving praise.” Once you hear the song and watch its accompanying psychedelic visuals, all that jive makes a whole lot of sense. The Adam Mallett-directed video puts the Bath, England outfit into a cartoon sea filled with ghosts, fire, and old-school Batman-style animated onomatopoeia. The visuals add urgency to the track, which blends Franz Ferdinand’s choppy rhythms with David Byrne’s troubled “Psycho Killer” coo. Enjoy it above, and pick up Archie Bronson Outfit’s fourth album, Wild Crush, on May 20 via Domino.
