White Lies deliver new single 'Blue Drift'

With their eagerly-awaited new album now just days away, White Lies have now unveiled yet another cut lifted from their forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Blue Drift' follows on from the previously shared tracks 'Am I Really Going To Die', 'I Don’t Want To Go To Mars', and the record's title-track in previewing their sixth LP 'As I Try Not To Fall Apart', which is out this Friday 18th February via PIAS.

Speaking about the new offering, the band's Charles Cave said, "Dare I say it this is another tip-toe into a more progressive-rock realm. The song feels very much a nighttime drive to me, winding empty roads, foreign air creeping in through the window. It’s a song about being humbled by the mind’s ability to lift us up and bring us down. It’s grand, full of longing and bombast, but there is an uneasiness to it too. It never quite resolves. This is going to be HUGE when we play it live!"
