King Krule (aka British musician Archy Marshall) released a new album, The Ooz, in October via True Panther in the U.S. (and XL in the U.K.). Now he has stopped by NPR’s offices to perform four songs as a Tiny Desk Concert. For the uninitiated, Tiny Desk Concerts are stripped down sets recorded at the desk of Bob Boilen, the host of NPR’s All Songs Considered. Marshall and his band performed four songs from The Ooz: “Midnight 01 (Deep Sea Diver),” “Lonely Blue,” “Logos,” and “Sublunary.” Watch it below.

Pick up Under the Radar‘s current print issue (Issue 62/Fall 2017) to read our exclusive interview with King Krule on The Ooz.

Previously King Krule shared the jazzy “Czech One,” via its video in which he levitated off the ground and took a strange airplane flight (it was our #1 Song of the Week), and “Dum Surfer” via a video that featured Marshall and his band as zombies as they performed in a small venue (it was also our #1 Song of the Week). Then he shared a video for another song from the album, “Half Man Half Shark,” that consisted of blurry live footage captured on VHS, mixed with animation by Theo Chin. He also stopped by the BBC music show Later… with Jools Holland to perform “Dum Surfer.”

The Ooz is the follow-up to 2013’s 6 Feet Beneath the Moon (released under the King Krule name) and 2015’s A New Place 2 Drown (a collaborative project between Marshall and his brother Jack, released simply under the name Archy Marshall).
