British indie rockers King No-One have revealed their infectious new single ‘Alcatraz’, out November 11th via Lab Records. The track premiered with Clash who raved about its "fizzing hooks, buoyant energy, and tonnes of charm."

 

‘Alcatraz’ is an upbeat indie pop charmer. The single writhes with a funky bassline and shimmers with bright guitars among vibrant danceable beats, giving the likes of The 1975 and Don Broco a run for their money.
