Over the past 11 months, we've made our affection for Glass Animals pretty clear here on Stereofox. Watching the Oxford based four-piece grow has been a pleasure, and with the release of brand new single 'Pools', it seems pretty clear that they are one of the most exciting, innovative new bands out there.
Renowned for their inventive sound, unusual instrumentation and quirky hooks, Glass Animals have always been eccentrically brilliant. For some this may have been slightly alienating in the past, however, I'm pretty sure new single 'Pools' will be enjoyed by music fans across the board.
Immersed in the natural sounds of the jungle, 'Pools' is a tropical influenced party number with an insatiable groove and infectious liveliness. Amongst its tribal drums and eclectic synths, what seems like a small choir of marimbas vie for attention in one of the most complex, but beautifully catchy chorus' I've heard this year.
'Pools' is the first single to be released from Glass Animals' debut album ZABA. Both the track and album will be released on June 9th.
