Glass Animals have quickly built up an exciting profile for themselves as an experimental indie-dance-type band following five EPs that date back to 2012. They’re basically this year’s Alt-J!

ZABA is their first album proper after signing to super-producer Paul Epworth’s Wolf Tone label and features the single ‘Pools’.

Announcing the album stream, Glass Animals frontman Dave Bayley said of ZABA:

We set out to make a record that you can listen to from start to finish. Something that takes you to a place away from reality and holds you there for its entirety. Each song is meant to fill a space that the others don’t in terms of the music, lyrics and the sonics. We didn’t want to repeat ideas, or repeat any one emotion. We didn’t want to write a whole record of love songs for example. It’s meant to fit together a bit like a puzzle, where hopefully the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, and each song is a little world within an overarching larger picture, taking you through to different places, meeting different characters and creatures.
