The Datsuns are to release their fourth album, Head Stunts, on Monday 6th October.
Leading single, Human Error, is to precede the album on the 29th September and will be available as a limited edition 7″ vinyl, as well as a digital bundle.
Dolf de Borst, frontman of the band explains that the album is “about mind games and self-doubt. “Head Stunts” is an anagram of The Datsuns!…We were aware of it all along but we didn’t want to make it too obvious. We got a new member of the band on drums, Ben Cole, so it was like making our first record again, with new influences and new abilities. With a new person, we were able to feed off each other in different ways. We had the same ideas, but we flipped them around, just like you do with an anagram. When you have somebody new in the band you can try different ideas that may not have clicked before.”
