British India Australian Tour Late 2012 – ‘I Can Make You Love Me’ Tour

British India have announced Australian tour dates for this September and October to celebrate the release of their new single I Can Make You Love Me. The band unveiled the video for the track earlier today, which features a lovelorn minotaur. Apparently the mask took five hours to graft on to the actor, and he had to sleep in it because of the early morning start on the shoot.

Frontman Declan Melia spoke about the new single to triple j last month, stating: “This next song you’re about to hear is pretty dark stuff. We go into some emotions and atmospheres that we’ve not been able to do before…[The album’s] sounding good. It’s sounding very eclectic. Avalanche, I’ve been told by listeners, is an eclectic record, but this is eclectic on an even greater level. It’s a real mixed bag. It will have our heaviest music on it but it will also have almost Bon Iver-ish folk stuff and all these different influences we’ve always listened to, but it’s going to really bubble to the surface on this record. Because I think we’re only now ready, willing or brave enough to show them off.”

The album hasn’t been christened, but the 4th release from the band is expected around November. Tickets on sale Monday, August 20th via Oztix, Moshtix and selected venues.
