As previously reported, Montreal-based ambient popsters Seoul recently inked a deal with Last Gang, and they'll be delivering their debut album later this year. Today (February 24), though, they've dropped the first single from the forthcoming release.
"The Line" brings together a dancefloor-ready, synthed-out beat and soothing, dreamy vocals — resulting in a lush, textured, catchy electro-pop jam.
It will appear on the trio's debut LP, I Become a Shade, which is slated to arrive on June 9 via Last Gang. You can check out the band's upcoming tour dates below. And to help ease the wait until the album arrives, give "The Line" a spin right now in the player below [via Noisey].
