Violent Femmes have shared the title song from their upcoming album, Hotel Last Resort.
Hotel Last Resort, which is the folk-punk band's 10th album, will be released on July 26 via PIAS.
Television guitarist Tom Verlaine collaborated with Violent Femmes for the five-minute track.
"We didn't really give him much instruction, but he did exactly what we hoped he'd do," bassist Brian Ritchie said in a statement about Verlaine's role in the music.
"He clearly has an affinity for the song. He must've really clued in on the lyrics, and he really interpreted them with a guitar," Ritchie added.
"One of the greatest thrills of a long recording career is getting Tom Verlaine to play on one of our songs. It's just amazing to hear that sound," said Femmes guitarist Gordon Gano.
