'We ain't born typical', Alison and Jamie insist, teasingly, on sensual first single U.R.A Fever, and the tune punches their point home.
Two minutes plus of dark, stark sleaze-pop, its prowling tempo, glammy textures and surrealist brevity provide the sexed-up antidote to fast, shouty and empty corporate indie rock.
U.R.A Fever is the first release from the Kills since their 2005 album, No Wow, and is a taster of what's to come from their eagerly anticipated new album expected in March 2008.
U.R.A. Fever will be released on a one sided 7" with etchings on the B side.
