Fraternal Caulkheads Champs - also known as Michael and David Champion - have just uncovered a new single from upcoming sophomore record VAMALA.
"Blood" is a twinkling indie-pop affair, with dreamy echoes and a lingering romanticism scuttled through beats akin to YYYs' "Maps". The single will get a separate release 2 March. VAMALA is released 23 February
