Hooray! Bastille offer up new track ‘Good Grief’
The band have revealed the first track from their forthcoming new album ‘Wild World’.

After a good week’s worth of teasing, Bastille have finally revealed the first track to be taken from their forthcoming new album.
Titled ‘Good Grief’, the band’s new single is, well, as Bastille as ever. A real contrast to the moody track that was previewed on their ‘Wild World’ trailer earlier this month, it’s another slice of bouncy anthemic pop that’s tinged with a sense of darkness.
Opening with an iconic line from Kelly Le Brock in 1985’s classic Weird Science, the track was debuted as Annie Mac’s Hottest Record earlier this evening and you can listen to it via Spotify below.
Need more of a Bastille fix? Don’t forget - they gave DIY the exclusive first interview about ‘Wild World’ in our latest issue (out now!)
