Slowdive have posted a mysterious new video on their Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. The 22-second clip features a white line on a black screen that slowly forms a box; there is no audio. Watch it below. Pitchfork has reached out to Slowdive’s representatives for more information.

Slowdive’s last album, Pygmalion, arrived in 1995. In 2014, they reunited for a world tour (that included an appearance at Pitchfork Music Festival). A year later, they put out a new recording of “Avalyn,” performed on the 2014 tour. Upon releasing the track, the band said they were working on a live album. Recently, they wrote on Facebook, “Happy New Year from all of us.. It’s going to be busy,” and shared an article that named a Slowdive record as one to anticipate in 2017.
