Phantogram preview new album with ‘Cruel World’

Phantogram have debuted a loop-happy, slick new single called ‘Cruel World’.

Streaming below, the track debuted on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 show as a World Record.

It’s the latest song to be lifted from ‘Three’, the duo’s new album, due out 7th October via Fiction. It finds Sarah Barthel singing “I used to see beauty in people / but now I see muscle in bones,” picking up on the lost nostalgia of recent single ‘You Don’t Get Me High Anymore’.

Listen to ‘Cruel World’ below.

UK dates:

NOVEMBER
14 Brighton, Patterns
16 London, Heaven
17 Manchester, Deaf Institute
18 Glasgow, King Tuts
