The Phoenix Foundation detail new album Give Up Your Dreams, share first cut "Mountain"
New Zealand's The Phoenix Foundation have announced details of upcoming record Give Up Your Dreams, and shared the lead single "Mountain" to celebrate.
Give Up Your Dreams is the follow up to 2013's Fandango and is the band's sixth album in total.
Speaking about the prevalence of synths on the new record, the band said "we spent a great deal of time messing with an old Eventide H3000. There would be very few sounds we didn’t try to mess with... we turned all the cool and interesting sounds up loud so nothing was competing in the mix and you can actually hear the trippy shit.”
Give Up Your Dreams is released by Memphis Industries on 7 August.
