Last month, Sydney punks Royal Headache released “High,” the title track from their forthcoming album of the same name. Today, they’ve shared “Another World,” the album’s second single. Where “High” found the band tapping the brakes to give singer Shogun a better view of a broken relationship, here they’re running at full throttle, winking at garage while speeding right past it. “You ate my face to take my place/So you can shine in another world,” Shogun sings, drawing a surprisingly intricate pattern with the second line’s vocal melody before coming back down to shout out the rest of the chorus.

Royal Headache will bring their musical battle against entropy to North American shores in August. Give “Another World” and “High” a listen below, then check out their tour dates to see whether they’re coming to your town.
