My Disco Announce UK Shows And Unveil Video For King Sound

My Disco have unveiled the video for their latest single, King Sound, as well as announcing a European tour, which includes four UK shows.
The track is taken from their latest album, 'Severe', which was released in October last year. Discussing the video, which you can check out below, director Johann Rashid said:
I am combining my struggles with sleep with my collaboration between a band that was an armature for my early 20s. A frame made of wire sounds. MY DISCO would focus me and clarify my core with their rhythmic scaffold. For me they were an energy and a meditation, especially in their live shows. That immediacy of contact with the music, the band, that confrontation, is irreplaceable. But the music itself is abstraction, so I didn't want to capture it literally. I wanted to capture how it can't be captured - that mesmeric throb in our technology infused minds in the deep dark of night.
I leave my head and return to the exterior world, which inevitable reflects the interior... I have the keys to a place on Ave A called Elvis Guesthouse. I lock myself inside... I fill the room with smoke and lights... I create the dark feeling of being in a club by myself. In fact I am in a darkened club by myself. Fogged and flickered with light. Sound so loud. I make something simple to catch that feeling I had those years ago, when MY DISCO held me like an image on a screen, like interference in my brain, and built their vibrations into my core.
