Savages have unveiled a teaser trailer for their forthcoming album, and revealed that it'll be released in 2016. Watch the trailer below.
The band recently finished recording the follow-up to 2013's Silence Yourself. The album, which is currently untitled, will be released next year.
A new trailer for the LP borrows text from Jazz Cleopatra: Josephine Baker In Her Time by Phyllis Rose, with an American-accented man explaining, over footage of the band, "Her movements were all so fast no-one had time to decide what was happening. 'Is it a man? Is it a woman?' people wondered.
'Is she awful or marvellous? Black or white? Is that real hair, or has it been painted on?' She epitomised ambiguity, new frontiers. She seemed something more fugitive and extravagant than a dancer - more like ectoplasm. " It continues in this vein.

Speaking to Gigwise last month, the band's drummer Fay Milton said, "When we started the band, it was coming from an era where there was just a slug of tweeness and to be honest, possibly more so even from boys than from girls - I'm not gonna say men and women, it's boys and girls. I think Savages grew out of a reaction to that."
She added, "Not completely, but part of who we are today is a reaction to tweeness, and being bored of tweeness, and not fitting into that twee world that was surrounding music at that point."
Meanwhile, the band's bassist Ayse Hassen recently unveiled the first track from her new collaborative project, Kite Base, alongside Kendra Frost.
