Alt-J are releasing their third album, Relaxer, on June 2 via Canvasback Music. Previously they shared “3WW,” which featured the vocals of Ellie Rowsell of Wolf Alice, as well as a video for “3WW,” and “In Cold Blood,” which sounded like something that could have easily been found on the band’s Mercury Prize-winning debut album from 2012, An Awesome Wave. They have also launched a web game on their website and stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to perform “In Cold Blood” with The Roots. Now they shared a video for “In Cold Blood.” It starts like a nature documentary on the wood mouse, following a little mouse around the forest, but then it takes a dark and violent turn. Caspar Balsley directs and Iggy Pop narrates. Watch it below, followed by the band’s upcoming U.S. tour dates.
