Floridean indie outfit Black Kids are gearing up to release their long-awaited second record - and they've unveiled the video for its first single "Obligatory Drugs".
"Obligatory Drugs" is Reggie Youngblood & Co.'s first release since 2014's one-off single "Origami" .
The new LP will follow 2008 debut Partie Traumatic and 2009's Cemetery Lips EP. The former spawned their smash hit "I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How To Dance With You".
Former drummer Kevin Snow has directed the "Obligatory Drugs" video, which features animation by Bjorn Miner.
Black Kids' second album is due out in 2017.
