Sports Team are back with a brand new single, and news of their second album.
‘R Entertainment’ is the first taster of their forthcoming album ‘Gulp!’, which is set for release on 22nd July via Island Records.
Premiered as the Hottest Record in the World on BBC Radio 1 earlier this evening (29th March), the band explain ‘R Entertainment’ explores: “the packaging down of all human experience into entertainment, prompted by the infinite scroll through social feeds and the manic formlessness of the images we are hit with every day. Graphic news interrupted by ads for season 17 of The Bodyguard, news as a rubbernecking, passively waiting for the next drop of horror as we flick through recipes.”
Sports Team are set to play BBC 6 Music Festival in Cardiff this weekend. You can check out ‘R Entertainment’ below.
