Pop pair Matt and Kim have unveiled a new four-track EP titled WE WERE THE WEIRDOS recorded during the gap between Coachella weekends.

Speaking about the EP in a press release, the synthy duo say: "We took three months off over the winter, the longest break we’ve ever taken since we started the band. They say absences making the heart grow fonder, and when we got back on the road a few weeks ago we felt so f*ckin’ inspired! Like we were a new band! You have to ACT on inspiration or it’ll slip through your fingers, and then we were charged up even MORE from 1st weekend of Coachella. I’m so proud of how raw and real these songs are going to be, I really believe there is something special here…"
