Camera Obscura have released a new single off their forthcoming album entitled Desire Lines, due out via 4AD Records. This is the first release for the group since 2010’s excellent My Maudlin Career. The album, due out June 4th in the US, was recorded in Portland, OR with producer Tucker Martine (Mudhoney, The Decembrists, R.E.M.), and will feature guest appearances by Neko Case and My Morning Jacket’s Jim James. “Do It Again” is a clever, kinetic song packed with jangling guitars, quick paced percussion, and pop music references. In other words, this is classic Camera Obscura. Have a listen to the new single, and take a look at the upcoming tour dates below.
