Toronto rockers Wine Lips have released 'Fried IV,' the latest single to be taken off the band's upcoming fourth album, out April 5th via Stomp Records.

I've written a version of "Fried" on every record we put out so naturally I had to add a "Fried IV" to this album. The record had about 14 songs in the works and I was having a hard time coming up with an idea for "Fried IV," so it was looking like it might not happen this time around.

I was very transfixed on a riff from a song we decided to cut from the record so I just ended up reworking the whole song into something I was stoked about. It was the last song recorded for the record, I hadn't even rehearsed it with Aurora (drums) before going to the studio and I pieced the lyrics together right before recording them. We pretty much worked that song out on the spot with our engineer, Simon, and it became one of my favourite tracks on the record.
