Sprints have announced their next project: an EP titled A Modern Job. Landing on cult label Nice Swan in March, the five-track release will kick off with previously-released 'How Does The Story Go?', followed by today's new single 'Modern Job'.

"Oh, I wish I had it all" vocalist Karla Chubb sings on the acerbic, furious track, which rages against the standards we set for ourselves. 

Expanding on the single, Karla said: "Modern Job is a critique of modern existence but also an exploration of growing up queer. In your formative years, you are bombarded with media, books, news that depict what a “normal” life should be. Grow up, fall in love, get married… long live the nuclear family. By contrast when you grow up queer all these ordinary things can seem extraordinary, out of reach and in some parts of the world, illegal."

A Modern Job EP Tracklist:

1. How Does The Story Go?
2. Modern Job
3. Delia Smith
4. Little Fix
5. I'm In A Band

A Modern Job EP arrives 11 March via Nice Swan Records.
