SLOWDIVE release new single ‘alife’ from their highly anticipated new album ‘everything is alive’

This Friday, Slowdive will release their highly anticipated new album, everything is alive, via Dead Oceans. Today, they present its final single/video, ‘alife’, and announce all new European dates for 2024 (on sale Wed. Sept 6th at 10 am local time here).

Of ‘alife’, Neil Halstead adds: “‘alife’ is one of the first tunes we finished for the record. Shawn Everett did a really nice job with the mix. We tried so many times to figure out a good mix by ourselves and couldn’t do it . . . it sort of had us beaten until Shawn stepped in. We decided if he could handle that one he could probably do the whole record. Our friend Jake Nelson did a really nice animation for this song; it takes some of the imagery from the artwork and digs a little deeper into that.”

Also announced today are all new 2024 tour dates in Europe, kicking off on the 13th of Feb. Full dates can be found below, including the new shows in bold:
