King Krule reveals trippy animation for new single "Cellular"
King Krule is back with "Cellular" - a third glimpse of his upcoming Man Alive! record - which arrives with a trippy animated visual by Jamie Wolfe.
"Cellular" lands after previous singles "Alone Omen 3", and "(Don’t Let The Dragon) Draag On".
The new single is the opening track from King Krule's new album, and arrives with a video animated by Jamie Wolfe, who also animated his "Vidual" single in 2017.
Man Alive! will follow on from King Krule's Mercury Prize nominated second album The Ooz.
Marshall partly recorded his new album at Shrunken Heads in Nunhead, London with co-producer Dilip Harris before the arrival of his daughter with Charlotte Patmore in March 2019.
He relocated to North West England when he found out about his daughter, and resumed recording his new LP at Eve Studios in Stockport when he moved.
Marshall says the new album title "is an exclamation, about the times we live in. Like, 'Fucking hell, man!'". He got the title from a CD his uncle gave him back in 2013, and he originally planned to use it for The Ooz. Marshall adds, "But ‘The Ooz’ really summed up that record, just this splurge of everything I love – messy and with no direction. I thought, anyway, 'Nah, I can’t steal it off him', but now I'm like, 'Fuck it, I'm gonna use it!' I haven't really spoken to him about it actually. I just liked the idea of it as an exclamation. It's kind of like, 'Oh shit!’, but I didn't wanna call it that, I wanted it to be 'Man Alive!' – super-Americanized, like a saying from Adam West as Batman."
