Ride have detailed Weather Diaries, their first new album in over 20 years, and shared a video for "Charm Assault".
Anton Newcombe and Jean de Oliveira created the psychedelic video for Weather Diaries' lead single.
The album news arrives after lead singles "Home Is A Feeling" and "Charm Assault", which arrived last month. The album - which is apparently gonna be “equal parts Motörhead And William Basinski” - is produced by Erol Alkan and follows Ride's most recent studio record, Tarantula, released in 1996.
Ride are set to perform at the BBC 6 Music Festival in Glasgow tomorrow (24 March), and have dates in Belfast, Dublin, and Spain confirmed.
Weather Diaries is due out 16 June via Wichita.
