Ratatat air ‘Abrasive’ video

Dance-leaning, riff-obsessed duo Ratatat have unveiled a new track from their forthcoming ‘Magnifique’ album.

‘Abrasive’ is a groove-led indication of where the band’s first album in five years is heading. A subtle, swinging take on their signature sound, it comes complete with a strange, animated video. Bringing together javelin throwers and pole vaulters, it looks similar to the animated segments of A-Ha’s ‘Take On Me’ classic.

‘Magnifique’ is released on 17th July via XL Recordings / Because Music. Pre-order here.

1. Intro
