(Palace Winter)

With new album Nowadays out next week, Copenhagen-based duo Palace Winter are previewing the release with one final track.

We've already spoken to Carl Coleman and Dane Caspar Hesselager about the death, loss and mortality-obsessed record, and "Come Back (Left Behind)" might be Palace Winter's best track yet.

A song about "being visited in your dreams by the ghost of a past love", the high anxiety and creeping darkness is balanced by bright Prefab Sprout-style synths and Palace Winter's trademark driving jangle, aided by the most solid of backbeats.

As with the best PW songs, the key is pushing on and pushing through; "Come Back (Left Behind)" faces up to loss and heads into an uncertain future.

"Come Back (Left Behind)" is taken from Nowadays, out 4 May via Tambourhinoceros.
