Bleach Lab have shared the video for new Stephen Street-produced single ‘Real Thing’ and announced a bunch of tour dates over the next few months (sounds good to be able to say that again, doesn’t it?).

Another heart-wrenching and poignant four minutes that reminded us of both Longpigs and Japanese Breakfast, you can feel the desire and emotion in Jenna Kyle’s voice when she pleads ‘I really want to see you again, I want to be more than just friends’ over a soothing and atmospheric, gently electronic-tinged backing. She follows this up by saying how ‘I really want to hold you tonight’ and you just hope she finds the subject of the song and gets this hug. She deserves it.
