Ahead of the release of their debut album Apocalypso on Lost Map Records on October 13 (pre-order here), self-styled purveyors of “tropical pop for the Apocalypse” Insect Heroes present the track ‘King Fabulous’, an addictive shot of 60s garage-psyche propelled by an infectious cowbell beat, proving that driving with the top down and drinking in the VIP lounge isn’t the preserve of bling-dripping R&B stars but merely a state of mind.
Available to purchase now from the Lost Map webshop in postcard format – stamped with a download code giving access to the title track and two bonus tracks – it's accompanied by a life-affirmingly unmissable video directed by Blair Young (Forest of Black), starring Insect Heroes singer/songwriter George Thomas and an elderly raver enjoying one last dance on his deathbed.
Insect Heroes will appear live at a suitably cosmic launch show for Apocalypso at The Old Hairdresser's, Glasgow, on Fri, Oct 17, as well as at Lost Map's Halloween Special at The Mash House, Edinburgh on Fri, Oct 31. Tickets for both shows are on sale now.
