What the label says:

Yeti is the first single taken from the forthcoming Caribou album, The Milk of Human Kindness. Caribou, for those who’ve come in late, is Dan Snaith, the artist formerly known as Manitoba.

Having been sued for trademark infringement by one of the original New York punks (Handsome Dick Manitoba of The Dictators), Dan opted not to fill the retirement coffers of several high-priced US lawyers. He just changed his artist name.

CARIBOU. Try it, it rolls off the tongue.

What hasn’t changed is Snaith’s characteristically inventive musical nerve and joyous spark. A carnival-esque whirl of ridiculous melodies, effusive noise, stampeding beats and furiously harmonised vocals, we can say with 100% certainty that Yeti is quite bananas. The two non-album tracks do not disappoint us on the song-title front, nor will they fail to woo listeners with their beguiling charms.

Yeti is but a teasing taste of the delights contained on The Milk of Human Kindness. An emotionally charged collection of songs, it is Dan Snaith’s best album.

Just remember to look for it under Caribou…
