Unknown Mortal Orchestra Returns w/ Glitzy, Funk-Fueled "First World Problem"

Those wondering where the weird and wonderful Unknown Mortal Orchestra's been, need not wait any longer. The future-minded Kiwi outfit returns today with their first track since the release of last year's superlative Multi-Love, tackling dating in the digital age on their glitzy, funk-fueled new single "First World Problem," premiering earlier today on Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1 program. The track arrives ahead of a lengthy stateside touring schedule, which is listed below. Peep the newness from Unknown Mortal Orchestra in the player below and if you've yet to take in their Multi-Love LP, jump back to revisit.
