Gang Gang Dance are releasing a new album, Kazuashita, on June 22 via 4AD. Kazuashita is the band’s first album in seven years, since 2011’s Eye Contact. Now they have shared another song from the album, “Young Boy (Marika in Amerika).” Listen below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.

Previously Gang Gang Dance shared Kazuashita‘s first single, “Lotus” (which was one of our Songs of the Week). That was followed by another song from the album, “J-TREE” (which was also one of our Songs of the Week). “J-Tree” featured a spoken word sample of Shiyé Bidziil of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe speaking out against the construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline through sacred Native American burial lands.

Gang Gang Dance is Lizzi Bougatsos, Brian DeGraw, and Josh Diamond. DeGraw produced the album, which was recorded in several New York recording studios and art spaces and also features drummer Ryan Sawyer and Jorge Elbrecht (who contributed additional production and mixing duties).
