Shame have shared a brand new single ‘This Side of the Sun’, alongside a new self-directed visualiser.

The track is the band’s first new music since the release of their second album ‘Drunk Tank Pink’ back in January.

Speaking about ‘This Side of the Sun’, the band explain: “The whole song came together on the day we recorded it at the studio. It’s also the first live recording we’ve ever done, we didn’t want it to sound overworked. It’s a pure banger, listen with a piña colada in your left hand.”

The new track arrives just ahead of Shame’s November headline tour, which kicks off next week. The band will also head off on a North American tour in Feb of next year. You can find the dates after the jump.
