Sleigh Bells (Alexis Krauss and Derek E. Miller) are releasing a new album, Texis, this Friday via Mom + Pop Music. Now they have shared the album’s third single (and likely final pre-release single), “True Seekers.” Listen below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.

Previously Sleigh Bells shared the album’s first single, “Locust Laced,” via a video for it. Then they shared its second single, “Justine Go Genesis,” also via a video.

Texis is the follow-up to 2016’s full-length album Jessica Rabbit and 2017’s mini-album/EP Kid Kruschev.

“We stopped worrying about whether or not we’re in or out of our comfort zone, or if we were being repetitive or formulaic,” said Miller in a previous press release.

Miller added: “The thing I’m most attracted to is the juxtaposition of happy and sad, melancholy and hope. A lot of this is about trying to hold on to a shred of optimism through sheer force of will, and I hope this music can give people some joyful energy and confidence.”
