Sports Team announce new album 'Boys These Days'

Following on from their highly-praised 2022 sophomore LP 'Gulp!', Sports Team have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving early next year.

The new full-length 'Boys These Days' is being previewed by the lead single 'I'm In Love (Subaru)', which comes accompanied by a stunning Dora Paphides-directed video, and is set to arrive on the 28th February 2025 via Distiller Records and Bright Antenna.

Speaking about the new offering, vocalist Alex Rice said, “The song captures that tension between those glossy inanimate objects you can project any desire onto versus all the stuff that creeps in behind it. It should be a very uncomplicated love song, talking about cars and how people perceive their relationships, but with humanity, nothing is ever that simple.

“Having been in London guitar world for a quite while, I began looking at people like Bryan Ferry and how it can be a bit more fun if you play around with characters. He looks like he’s having a better time than a lot of the bands from our generation, and that’s what you want to be shooting for. The video we did with Dora really taps into that dramatic side too. It’s something that has always been there, but it felt right to really explore it around this song.”
