Alt-rock mainstays Garbage returned with a new LP Not Your Kind of People back in 2012, but for fans eager to hear some fresh material from the band, they've offered up a taste of their Record Store Day release.
 
"The Chemicals" will be released on fluorescent orange 10-inch vinyl this Saturday (April 18), and features Silversun Pickups frontman Brian Aubert pitching in on vocals. The band have shared a new video for the collaborative tune, which features jumpy-then-slow-motion black-and-white footage of kids in an underground club.
 
"We've always been talking about the beauty of small punk clubs," said Garbage singer Shirley Manson in a press release about the new clip. "We were sort of rueing with the loss of a lot of those clubs that Sophie and I grew up in — that sort of sweaty excitement and the sensuality that comes when you cram people in such a tiny space."
 
You can watch the recreation of those chemically-fuelled club nights in the video for "The Chemicals" below.
