Slaves’ new album ‘Acts of Fear and Love’ comes out this month via Virgin EMI, and they’ve shared a third preview of the record.

‘Photo Opportunity’ follows ‘Cut And Run’ - complete with its workout video - and ‘Chokehold’, which saw Laurie Vincent auditioning for a new drummer after Isaac left the band to pursue a career in dancing, and the new cut shows a more contemplative side to the duo.

Slaves front the new issue of DIY alongside IDLES - read their cover feature in full online here and order a copy of the magazine here.
