Black Peaks have released a video for their track Glass Built Castles.
It features on their debut album Statues, which will be released on April 8 via Easy Life and Sony RED.
The band say: “This was one of the first songs we wrote when we were in session writing Statues. It was one of those tracks that came together in about three hours and practically wrote itself.
“It is part three of a four-part story that is pieced together on the album. In the new video you will get a glimpse at part of this story. All will become clear soon.”
Last month, the Brighton-based outfit released a stream of their track Set In Stone from Statues, which is available for pre-order from their label’s website.
Black Peaks are currently on a UK tour with Palm Reader and Toska. They’ve also been confirmed for this year’s Download festival.
