Metronomy return with new single 'Lately'

Following on from their much-loved 2016 studio album 'Summer 08', Metronomy have now unveiled the first taste of a new full-length, arriving later this year.

The new single 'Lately' is the group's first piece of new material since their last LP, and comes accompanied with a new official video, directed by the band's frontman Joe Mount.

Speaking about the new clip, Mount said, "This music video is a pop promo in the grand tradition of pop promos: End of school on a Friday afternoon, Mysterious little people that live in a cassette tape, concerned parents and special FX. The song and video are both about growing up. I’ve absolutely loved taking the opportunity to direct our own music videos. I have quite strong opinions on what music videos are for in 2019 and how they should be presented and this has been a chance for me to put my money where my mouth is! The most impressive thing I’ve realised is how much of a group effort creating a music video is. I’ve always known it, but this time I’ve obviously worked much closer with the various characters, involved in every department. So, thank you to them."
