Lip Critic announce their signing to Partisan Records (Fontaines D.C., Blondshell), and share new track “It’s The Magic”. To celebrate the news, the New York City electronic punk band will also be heading to the UK for a run of headline shows this November.

The new single is a mission statement with its dislocating collision of raw-nerved punk and drum and bass tempos that warrants not one, but two drummers, to execute. The accompanying video, directed in a collaboration between the band and Aaron Fenichell, is a visual translation of Lip Critic’s warped interior world.

The band have already played all over NYC, where they’ve found themselves on hip-hop, punk and dance bills – simultaneously out of place and right at home on all of them. Frontman Bret Kaser, who carries the energy of Fred Schneider of the B-52’s if he fronted a hardcore band, delivers lyrics about the absurdity of everyday life with hypnotic charisma.
