Kula Shaker are back with their eighth album 'Wormslayer', dropping January 30th 2026. But it's their new single 'Good Money' that's causing the real stir.

The video is entirely AI-generated. By monkeys?! 😂

As frontman Crispian Mills explains: "Our last video was all in camera, real stunts, real props and epic battle scenes which people assumed was all AI. So we've taken a different approach with Good Money. The whole video is entirely AI generated by two monkeys, we gave them the song and the lyrics and this is what they came up with."

It's a slightly haunting, yet captivating surrealist satire featuring advanced primates, capitalist muppets, an evil ringmaster and the devil. It's mind-blowing stuff.

'Good Money' itself is classic Kula Shaker - a kaleidoscopic whirlpool of '60s psychedelia, sumptuous soul and retro-freakery funk. Lyrically, it's a Faustian pact about a boy who grows wings and how his community reacts. Some see freak, some see cherub, others see profit.

"Is it a metaphor for the music business? I'd say it's a metaphor for life," says Mills.

The band - still the original lineup of Mills, Alonza Bevan, Paul Winterhart and Jay Darlington - have already previewed 'Wormslayer' with singles 'Charge of the Light Brigade' and 'Broke as Folk'. The new album promises everything from pastoral folk to gothic crooning to expansive mantra-metal.

They're touring the UK in February 2026, with dates including Brighton's Concorde 2 (7th), Cambridge Junction (8th), and London's Islington Assembly Hall (13th).

Pre-order access gets you early tour tickets. Pre-sale starts 9.30am Thursday 18th September, general sale Friday 19th.

Remember, this is the band that headlined Glastonbury twice in one weekend and opened for Oasis at Knebworth. They're not messing about.
