Perpetually gloomy Toronto duo Crystal Castles have unveiled new track "Plague," presumably from their upcoming LP.

Producer Ethan Kath previously spoke about the band's future direction saying: "Every song we write feels bleak to me. I don't get it when people think it's beautiful. I think it [bleakness] is the only emotion we do. We don't want to do anything else."

So, as expected, the grinding synths of "Plague" might not make your new feel-good song of the summer, but new music from the band might cheer some fans up nonetheless.

While we await official details for the upcoming album, give "Plague" a listen below.
