School Of Seven Bells Release New Single 'I L U' Plus November 2010 Tour Date Details

School Of Seven Bells have announced details of a new single 'I L U', set for release on the 6th December through Full Time Hobby.

School Of Seven Bells go from strength to strength, having just confirmed appearances on two of the US's top TV shows, 'Late Night With Jimmy Fallon' and 'Last Call With Carson Daly'. Recent single 'Heart Is Strange' was playlisted at BBC 6 Music and Xfm among others, and the band have been confirmed to do a session on BBC Radio 2 with Radcliffe & Maconie next month.

In between all this and heavily touring the States this year, guitarist Benjamin has somehow found time to be Victoria Beckham's music supervisor for her New York shows, managing to insert the likes of Can, Harmonia, Suicide, and Velvet Underground into the catwalk soundtrack. It's perhaps a strange mix of the mainstream and underground, but the pop/leftfield crossover is what SVIIB seemingly do best.

New single 'I L U' is a dreamy Twin Peaks-esque love song, mourning the end of a relationship. Layered synth, Ben's woozy guitar licks and big snares throughout, with the Twins' ethereal vocals swirling in and out of this epic pop number. The B side is remix from US touring partners Active Child.

Supporting SVIIB at their London show will be a rare appearance from electronica hot shot and some time Brian Eno collaborator (with 'Small Craft On A Milk Sea' out on Warp) Jon Hopkins. The multi talented Hopkins is not only a respected solo artist and producer, he also turns his hand to film scores (on the upcoming Peter Jackson approved UK independent film 'Monsters') as well as some sharp remixes for the likes of Wild Beasts, Four Tet and Nosaj Thing.
