Minimalist Austin trio Love Inks are set to release third album Exi on Monday, September 8, via Republic Of Music, and we're happy to share the exclusive stream with you, ahead of its release. Across ten tracks, Love Inks cut a sleek, hushed form with frontwoman Sherry LeBlanc's smooth, subdued vocals gliding over barely-there guitar chords and metronomic drum pads. Exi follows the release of second album Generation Club just under a year ago and is billed as a "return to that minimal sound and aesthetic that fans discovered with their debut back in 2011". Listen above.

You can check out Love Inks live in the UK when they play dates in Glasgow, Manchester and London between November 30 and December 2 - full details are over at their Facebook page - and stay tuned for further coverage on tQ.
