Sleigh Bells are returning this year with a new album. Their new full-length is called Texis and it’s out September 10 via Mom + Pop. The duo of Alexis Krauss and Derek Miller announced the record with a video for the new single “Locust Laced.” Directed by Miller and Nina Ljeti, it portrays the duo as a ’50s country group. Watch it, and find Sleigh Bells’ upcoming tour dates, below.

“We stopped worrying about whether or not we’re in or out of our comfort zone, or if we were being repetitive or formulaic,” producer and guitarist Derek Miller said of the creative process behind the new album. Texis follows 2016’s Jessica Rabbit and the 2017 Kid Kruschev EP.
