Kill The Robot have released their debut single and video, Western Shores, which acts as not only a lead off for their self-titled album – due out 11th July via Dark Lab Recordings – but also as a touching tribute to their friend, Taylor Hawkins.

“It was written the day after we learned that Taylor Hawkins had passed. We were all heartbroken. He was a dear friend who truly loved music more than anyone I’ve ever known. He and I had talked about creating some new music together. So, this song was born with the intention to create a song that hopefully he would’ve dug… and in a way, it even felt like he was being channelled in the room when we wrote it. It happened fast and organically, and we didn’t have to overthink it. It was just a great vibe immediately. I think of him often. This one’s for him.”
