Mike Skinner's The Streets have returned with a new single, "Call My Phone Thinking I'm Doing Nothing Better", which will be included on their forthcoming project None Of Us Are Getting Out Of This Life Alive — the first since 2011's Computers and Blues. The new trackis a collaborative effort with indie-pop outfit Tame Impala, and it's a full-on experimental piece. 

The track's accompanying visuals capture Skinner taking a trip up into the mountains, where he attempts to get in contact with Tame Impala's Kevin Parker using a nostalgia-infused Nokia brick phone. The funky, twilight zone of rap is as unorthodox as the visuals, reminding us all of the lane The Streets have owned since 2002's Original Pirate Material.

Watch the visuals for "Call My Phone Thinking I'm Doing Nothing Better" above, and pre-order the new album (due July 10) featuring Jesse James Solomon, Chris Lorenzo, IDLES, Dapz On The Map, Oscar #Worldpeace and more, right here.
