Slauson Malone 1 (the artist formerly known as Slauson Malone) has announced a new album titled EXCELSIOR, his Warp Records debut. The project is scheduled for an October 6 release, and its second single is out today. “New Joy,” which follows last month’s Song You Need-certified “Voyager,” is a dreamy jam about the bliss of submission.
The track’s visual treatment, co-directed by Malone and Injury Reserve/By Storm’s Parker Corey, mostly comprises close-up shots of cars, drums, chips, and the back of Malone’s head, except for a brief segment featuring a time-lapsed sketch of furries and a clip of Malone performing a spaghetti mukbang.
