Unknown Mortal Orchestra are back with ‘American Guilt’
Today, Unknown Mortal Orchestra returned with a new song ‘American Guilt’ and a lot of US and EU tour dates from April onwards this year.
There’s not much context for the new track but it’s a departure from Multi-Love for sure, revelling in a more scuzzy lo-fi rock buzz.
I’d expect an Irish show and an album announcement too (IE dates are never in these lists for some promoter reasons).
The song has been added to the Nialler9 New Music Spotify playlist.
