The Murder Capital are back with new single, "Can’t Pretend To Know"

Frontman James McGovern says of the track, “‘Can’t Pretend To Know’ is a whip of a tune that we made to feel like a hurricane of colour and breathlessness. A surreal look at childhood innocence and all its replacers, those delicate bridges we burn as we move through the strangeways of our youth. Moulded by everything we come into contact with. Learning lessons from toys. Playing the parts that are asked of us.”

Along with the single the band have announced a short UK tour in April 2025, with shows in Leeds, Manchester, Glasgow, and London's Outernet, and more. Alongside this, they’ll be supporting Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds in Europe.
