Today, breakthrough British band Sports Team unveils their new song, “The Drop,” on BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record In The World alongside an accompanying video.

Of the song, the group says, “It’s questioning a constant striving for achievement, never really enjoying the moments and ‘Katie dying waiting for the right time to retire.’ Today the internet told me they’ve found ‘pits on the moon where humans could comfortably live and work,’ brilliant.”
The new track is the latest from the band’s highly anticipated new album, Gulp!, which is set for release September 23 via Island UK/Bright Antenna. The group previously debuted three singles from Gulp!, with “R Entertainment,” “Cool It Kid” and “The Game” premiering on BBC Radio.

The new music has already begun to receive praise with Rolling Stone UK giving Gulp! a four-star review, proclaiming, “Sports Team have set their sights on becoming the biggest band on the planet, and this ambition is on full show across this album of intoxicating, large-scale melodies… Sports Team’s remarkable rise won’t stop here.”
