Moses Sumney on Thursday released a gritty new track called "Virile."

The haunting new cut arrives as the lead single and first preview of his upcoming double album græ, which will be released next year, starting with the first half arriving digitally in February and then the second half as well as the full physical project coming May 15.

Of the accompanying video, which marks Sumney's directorial debut, he says: "In a post-human world, the last remaining man is caught between Beauty and Brutality's battle to dominate the earth and his body."

This is Sumney's first new material which he wrote in his new home of Asheville, North Carolina.
