Four years after the worthy Derdang Derdang, London’s Archie Bronson Outfit are set to followup that last LP’s dark blues/rusty grooved garage rock with a long-awaited third album, titled Coconut. On production is sorta-ex-DFA-dude Tim Goldsworthy, whose stellar C.V. includes the likes of the Rapture and Hercules & Love Affair. You’ll hear some of that dirty and discomfiting dance sensibility creep into Coconut‘s first single “Shark’s Tooth”: throbs of bass, scraped guitars, like their rock gut a little grimier and their dance-blues turned a little more to the psych. The official video is a sci-fi odyssey, with effects like Laser Cats and animation via Monty Python. Are we laughing, or are we vexed? “Dart For My Sweetheart” it is not. But it is good.

Have it:
