Last week, King Krule (Archy Marshall) announced that his new album, The Ooz, would arrive October 13 via True Panther Sounds/XL. Today, he has shared more details about the LP, along with a new song, “Dum Surfer,” and its macabre video. In the Brother Willis-directed short, Marshall fronts a band of the undead as they perform in a creepy underground diner. Check it out below, along with the album tracklist and cover art. Marshall heads out on tour in October—scroll down for the dates.
The Ooz also features recently released track “Czech One,” which arrived with another surreal video. The Ooz is Marshall’s first King Krule album since 2013's 6 Feet Beneath the Moon. In 2015, he released A New Place 2 Drown under his own name. Over the years, he has shared music under several monikers, including Edgar the Beatmaker, The Return of Pimp Shrimp, DJ JD Sports, and Zoo Kid.
