While it might seem like a backwards timeline, Young Fathers on Wednesday released the title track to their album Cocoa Sugar, which arrived back in March.

The blistering cut, which is indeed titled "Cocoa Sugar," didn't appear on the actual record, but the previously unheard track was recorded last year during the sessions for Cocoa Sugar. The newly released song is part of double A-side single including a new David Wrench mix of "Border Girl," the original of which did make the record.

The release of "Cocoa Sugar" comes ahead of Young Fathers' North American and U.K. shows, which begin next week in Los Angeles.

Hear the song below.
