The Afghan Whigs have premiered a new single called “Duvateen.”
“When I finished ‘Duvateen,’ it felt like my life passing before my eyes,” frontman Greg Dulli says in a statement. “The references to the teacher chasing me down the hall reminded me of my childhood. Digging a hole was an obvious allusion to a grave.”
He continues, “I’m at a precipice in life where I can look behind and clearly see the forest of my youth, but I can also see the path to the other side. And it’s going to inform what I do for the rest of my days.”
“Duvateen” follows the March single “House of I.” A new record is due out later in 2026. The most recent Afghan Whigs album is 2022’s How Do You Burn?
The Afghan Whigs will launch a U.S. tour Saturday in Woodstock, New York, in celebration of the band’s 40th anniversary.
