"New Violence" is the first single from the White Williams full-length, Smoke. Along with the standout album track, it features two exclusive new songs, "Violator" and "Satisfaction," and great vocal-driven remixes by Drop the Lime alter-ego Curses! (best known for releases on Para-One's Institubes label from France) and old school Tigerbeat6 favorites Stars as Eyes. This is nostalgic, colorful art-pop with a distinctively original electro edge.
