And So I Watch You From Afar unveil new single 'Years Ago' from upcoming album 'Megafauna'
The band's seventh album is set for release on 9th August via Pelagic Records.
And So I Watch You From Afar have released 'Years Ago', the third single from their upcoming seventh album 'Megafauna'. The new record is set for release on 9th August 2024 via Berlin's Pelagic Records.
The band commented on the new single, saying: "Where Years Ago retains some of the urgency that is across Megafauna, for me it also presents another colour of the record - A kind of sensitivity. Underpinned by a nod to the old hip hop loops that we all grew up on."

'Megafauna' was written during the pandemic when the band found themselves stationary. The album is described as a love letter to their home communities, recorded in a week with two guitars, bass and drums. It follows their 2022 release 'Jettison', which was an experimental, multi-media ensemble piece.
