As a further teaser, the electro-punk artist has dropped the record's lead single, CPR, an alt-pop offering that draws influence from mid noughties hip-hop while exploring saviour complexes. Lynks commented:
"There’s this temptation to shrink yourself and make yourself seem all helpless and vulnerable with those guys, so they get to feel like some Big Strong Man protecting you. CPR felt like the perfect metaphor for that weird dynamic.
“I first had the idea for CPR while doing a first-aid course at my old job. I was mid-chest compression on my dummy, and suddenly the chorus just came into my head over the rhythm of my hands on the doll. I quickly ran to the toilet to do a voicenote, then got back to saving imaginary lives."
Lynks will support the record with a previously scheduled UK and European tour in April and May. Tickets are on sale now.
