The band's Clams Baker describes new cut 'Fatso' as "a song dedicated to taking the time to slow down and sniff the roses"

Warmduscher have a new album on the way.

Titled At The Hotspot, it's the band's first full-length effort for Bella Union, and fourth album overall. The band worked on it over the course of more than a year during lockdown, alongside producer Joe Goddard and Al Doyle of Hot Chip. Above, you can listen to new track 'Fatso', which the band's Clams Baker has described in a statement as "a song dedicated to taking the time to slow down and sniff the roses, turn off the computer and take in the sunshine, and embrace the battle of a sleepless day at the office from a night of beautiful carnage that you'll always dream about."

Speaking about the process of working on the album, Baker added: "We were just happy to be doing something and seeing each other. It was that weird energy, where you're fed up and you're kind of angry, but in a good way. We would spend like two nights a week writing, maybe once or twice a month, sometimes less."

Bella Union will release At The Hotspot on April 1, 2022.
