School Of Seven Bells have shared a new track called "Open Your Eyes" from upcoming final record SVIIB.
The album will be the first release from the band since the passing of guitarist Benjamin Curtis in late 2013. Using parts recorded while Curtis was still alive, remaining member Alejandra Deheza completed the record; writing on the band's website, Deheza called the album "a love letter from start to finish".
"Open Your Eyes" is the first taste of the group's final chapter; it's a hope-filled bout of synthpop with a resounding, powerful chorus.
SVIIB is out 12 February 2016, and follows 2012's Ghostory.
