Check Out: Wild Beasts – “Thankless Thing”

After a foray into the remix game, UK indie rockers Wild Beasts are now dropping the next single from their latest LP, Smother. “Reach A Bit Further” will be released digitally and on 12″ vinyl on November 14th via Domino Records. Among the four tracks included a new cut entitled “Thankless Thing”. The track, recorded at the beginning of the Smother sessions, is a continuation of the record’s mellow sound, but with a far more rhythmic and almost primal drum beat. Check it out below (via Drowned In Sound).
