Brooklyn’s don’t-call-us-shoegazers footwear-eyeing duo Asobi Seksu recently announced details of a mini UK tour this April with noise rockers …And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead. It’s surely not a coincidental partnership given the title of their recent single, which this week got a rather brooding new video. Watch it below and follow the band as they explore a derelict old house and go wandering on some train tracks in the snow.
Yuki and James have also lined up a couple of shows of their own in London and Brighton. All dates are in support of the fourth Asobi Seksu album Fluorescence, released last week via Polyvinyl.

I have not heard the new album, but I really liked Citrus, for me it was a revelation in shoegaze, really different from other bands.
