Phoenix recently dropped a new single "Winter Solstice," the latest from their forthcoming album Alpha Zulu, and an accompanying video.
"Winter Solstice" marks the only Alpha Zulu song not composed in the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, where the band recorded the album.
Frontman Thomas Mars wrote the track's stream-of-consciousness lyrics to a beat sent by fellow bandmates Deck d'Arcy, Laurent Brancowitz and Christian Mazzalai.
The music video was directed by Warren Fu. The clip finds Mars standing on the peak of a cloud-covered mountain as he sings the song.
Alpha Zulu, the band's first album in five years, drops on November 4 via Loyauté/Glassnote. The record is a follow-up to 2017's Ti Amo.
Meanwhile, "Winter Solstice" follows previously released singles "Tonight" and the title track.
