Wolf Alice release video for ‘Heavenward’

Ahead of a run of intimate instore album launch shows, WOLF ALICE have revealed the video for new song HEAVENWARD. The track is the latest to be lifted from their forthcoming eagerly anticipated second album VISIONS OF A LIFE, released by Dirty Hit on 29 September on digital, CD and limited edition white vinyl formats.

HEAVENWARD is the stunning opening track from the album and its video is a fly-on-the-wall view of life on the road with the band, pieced together using live and home video footage shot on their sold-out USA tour earlier this year, the first time the band took the songs from VISIONS OF A LIFE out on the road.

And videos for the previous three tracks to be taken from the album are here:

VISIONS OF A LIFE is the follow up to the Gold-selling 2015 debut album MY LOVE IS COOL, which reached #2 in the UK album charts and #12 on the Billboard alternative albums chart in the USA. In its wake, the band were nominated for the Mercury Music Prize, an Ivor Novello award, a BRIT for Breakthrough Act and a Grammy for Best Rock Performance, and took home two NME Awards.

The new album also features the acclaimed YUK FOO, DON’T DELETE THE KISSES and BEAUTIFULLY UNCONVENTIONAL, and is available to pre-order now, with all four songs available as instant grat downloads. The album vinyl comes with a bonus 7” when pre-ordered via the band’s store.

WOLF ALICE have announced a string of instore appearances across the UK during the week of release to launch VISIONS OF A LIFE. The band then play two dates in Japan in October; a full UK and European tour starting in Paris on 27 October and taking in their biggest headline show to date at London Alexandra Palace; followed by Canada and the USA in December; a further tour of mainland Europe in January; and the Laneway Festival in New Zealand and Australis in January and February.
