Fat Freddys Drop have been in studio lockdown in 2008 recording the follow up to their multi-award winning debut album Based On A True Story (B.O.A.T.S.).
The as yet untitled album is set for a worldwide digital release Nov '08. The first official release from the album will be The Camel featuring UK singer Alice Russell duelling on the vocals with Joe Dukie.
The Camel, running at an epic 9 minutes and 30 seconds, will be released worldwide on limited edition vinyl, CD and digital download on 28 July by The Drop/Kartel. Check out the vide here and the infamous camel!
