Brooklyn's Sharkmuffin play scuzzy, ornery glam-rock with a strut — think T. Rex by way of Hole, or perhaps a more acrid Sweet. Two years after their self-titled debut, the band — which has shifted from a trio to a duo, consisting of Tarra Thiessen and Natalie Kirch — is gearing up to release their sophomore album, Tsuki. True to its title (the Japanese word for "moon"), the new record, which was recorded over the span of a single lunar cycle last year, represents an astral body of work, a vast universe dominated by pulsing riffs and gravity-laden grunge.

Case in point: luminous first single "Space Glow," which we're premiering today. "'Space Glow' isn't exactly about outer space," the band tells CLRVYNT. "It's about a brilliant artist with PTSD and synesthesia whose best friend happens to be the moon." Regardless, it's out of this world. Give it a spin below, and scroll down to check out the Tsuki album artwork and track list, plus Sharkmuffin's awesome Aliens-inspired tour poster.

Sharkmuffin's new album, Tsuki, is out May 5.
