Listen to King Krule’s New Album ‘Man Alive’ Now

King Krule’s fourth album Man Alive! is available now on all major streaming services. The album is his first since 2017’s The Ooz and was preceded by three singles: “(Don’t Let the Dragon) Draag On,” “Alone, Omen 3,” and “Cellular.” The album chronicles the British artist’s new life as he embraces the trials of fatherhood (his daughter was born in March 2019) as well as his familiar themes of general young anguish and abandonment across 14 genre-evading tracks. His songcraft and vocals remain as idiosyncratic as ever, but there’s a hint of vulnerability in his latest work that permits his undeniable musicianship and craft to truly shine.

King Krule Releases New Single Ahead of Album Drop

It’s been just over two years since King Krule’s last record, the critically-acclaimed genre-blurring The Ooz. In the years since the British artist became a father and released a short film, Hey World!. Now the King returns with a new album Man Alive! set for release later this month.

 

Ahead of the drop, the artist debuted a video for “Alone, Omen 3,” a song first used in his aforementioned short film. Directed by Jocelyn Anquetil, the music video follows Krule as he talk-sings his way across the British coast and contemplates a new chapter in his life as many men in their mid-20s are wont to do. The sparse airy arrangement is the perfect backdrop as he reminds the viewer “don’t forget you’re not alone.”

 

Watch the video for “Alone, Omen 3” below. Man Alive! is out on February 21.
