The Avalanches releasing new single tonight ++ new documentary ft. Father John Misty, Danny Brown & more

Australian sample-maestros The Avalanches are making their live return this weekend at Barcelona’s Primavera Sound festival. Ahead of that, they’re making their even-longer-awaited (and more anticipated) return to recorded music tonight by releasing their first new single in 15 years. It will premiere at midnight (so technically Thursday, June 2) on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 Radio show along with a new interview with the group. You can listen to a teaser for that below.

In other news, there is a new documentary, Since They Left Us: Whatever Happened to The Avalanches, coming soon (well, “maybe,” they say) that, if the trailer is any indication, is pretty tongue in cheek. It features Father John Misty, Kiran J Callinan, Danny Brown, Jennifer Herrema (Royal Trux), Ariel Pink, and more. You can watch that trailer below.

The Avalanches have added a few dates since our last post, and updated dates are listed below.
