Manchester band The 1975 have premiered new track 'Milk', taken from a special EP set for release in America on their upcoming tour. Listen to the track below.
The band will join The Neighbourhood as support on their stateside tour this summer, and turned down support slots with the likes of Rihanna, Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian and more to do so. 'Milk' will be available on a special 'split' EP which will be only available to buy at the US live shows. The band release their debut album in September 2013, but it is unknown whether 'Milk' will be included on the record.
"We've got our own obligations, so we've got to focus on our own output," said Matt Healy in a recent interview with Gigwise, where he discussed the band's upcoming tour with The Neighbourhood. "We were offered to support Rihanna, Arctic Monkeys, Fall Out Boy, Kasabian, Paramore and 30 Seconds To Mars... We've had to turn them all down. We've got our own things already planned, we've got shows that kids have already bought tickets for."
