!!! (pronounced Chk Chk Chk) are releasing a new album, Wallop, on August 30 via Warp. Now they have shared another song from it, “This Is the Door,” which showcases the vocals of the band’s Meah Pace. Listen to it below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.

Wallop is the follow-up to 2017’s Shake the Shudder. Previously the band shared three other songs from the album: “UR Paranoid,” “Off the Grid,” and “Serbia Drums.” Frontman Nic Offer recorded the album in his Brooklyn apartment. As well as vocals from Offer and regular co-vocalist Meah Pace, the album also features guest vocals from Liars’ Angus Andrew, Sink Ya Teeth’s Maria Uzor, and Glasser’s Cameron Mesirow.

A previous press release described the album this way: “Like an apocalyptic jukebox, Wallop is jam-packed with various sounds and styles from dance music’s rich history-from the pie-eyed psychedelia of Madchester-era English dance-rock to tunnel-vision techno and the flashy, bomb-dropping sound of UK grime. The candy-coated sounds of ‘90s rave loom large in Wallop‘s playful darkness, a callback to another era when everything felt like it was just about ready to fall apart.”

Offer had this to add: “Diving into ‘90s retro nostalgia is good for us. I know all the ‘80s stuff already, so it’s like, ‘What did happen in the ‘90s?’ Because in the ‘90s, we were just listening to James Brown.”
