ĠENN have released a new single, The Sister Of.

Atmospheric with ethereal vocals, the mid-tempo offering serves as the final taster of the Brighton-via-Malta quartet's debut album, 'unum', which is out this Friday (October 6). 

Head below to view the accompanying short film from Ukrainian director Kyryl Volovych. Commenting on the collaboration, he said:

"From a personal standpoint, this work is a deeply special one for me. We tend to lose ourselves in the whirlpool of events and occurrences that surround us in our daily lives, and war here in Ukraine has definitely brought a tsunami of those. I feel like The Sister Of is somewhat a merger of all the contrasting emotions, thoughts and changing outlooks on life that so happen to occur in my mind. And in the minds of millions. 

"ĠENN have been insanely supportive of the experimental nature of our concept from the very beginning and to be able to create a project, as meaningful to us as this one is, in Ukraine -  has an infinite value to me."

Discussing the clip, he added: "A blend of realism and mysterious surrealism, and elements of sci-fi, is a binding thread for the vision of this project.

"In the world of the The Sister Of - time is an independent reality existing without humans to perceive it.

"The main character is somewhat ethereal, a soul travelling in time and space. Through many dimensions. We just happen to see the story of only one of those.

"This body of work is a puzzle that’s being built as the viewer watches it, yet after completion the puzzle you have put together might be very different from viewer to viewer. And that’s what’s truly beautiful about cinema."

The Sister Of will joined on the record by the previously unveiled cuts Calypso, A Reprise (That Girl), Days And Nights and Rohmeresse.

The five-piece have a run of in-store dates kicking off on Friday, ahead of a newly announced headline UK and Ireland tour in February and March. Tickets go on general sale at 10am on Friday.

They have also lined up autumn shows in Germany and Luxembourg supporting Do Nothing, and play the UK's Rockaway Beach Festival in January.
