Ladytron have premiered the video for their fantastic single “The Animals”, to be featured on a yet to be named sixth studio album that the band have scheduled to record between May and June in the UK.
The video for “The Animals” was directed by Fernando Nogari and shot with a local cast in Brazil, to which Daniel Hunt, a founding member of Ladytron, describes as “a love letter to São Paulo”.
