There's a new FIDLAR album on the way.
The Los Angeles-based band will put out 'Almost Free', the follow up to 2015's 'Too', on January 25 through Mom & Pop. It will feature the previously shared tracks Alcohol and Too Real, but not Are You High?. That is only physically available as a b-side on a bonus 7" flexi disc of new single Can't You See, which is included with certain album bundles.
Discussing the new track, guitarist and vocalist Elvis Kuehn said:
“[Can't You See] is about believing you need external things to be fulfilled, when really that comes from within yourself. Play it loud while driving around Los Angeles and it’ll make sense."
About the record, he added
"It was about taking the ceiling off. Having it be limitless. Ain't no rules. 'Almost Free' feels like a step forward for us in a lot of ways. We tried to be true to ourselves and let the music come out naturally, without fear of how people would receive it."
Head below to listen to the new single. It is yet another curve ball from the band, this time musically digging into their classic rock influences and previewing yet another side of the new album and themselves, leaving behind the chaotic, punk sensibilities of the previously shared cuts.
