Mark Kozelek has released “Ali/Spinks 2,” a new track from Sun Kil Moon’s upcoming album, Universal Themes. Musically, the just-shared song strays slightly from Kozelek’s 2014 masterpiece, the mostly acoustic Benji; woolly electric guitar spills out of the track, which also features a knotty instrumental break about a third of the way through. (Perhaps it’s the influence of Sonic Youth’s Steve Shelley, who provides percussion on Universal Themes?)

Lyrically, though, the boxer-referencing song is unquestionably Kozelek. “Ali/Spinks 2″ is a nearly seven-minute stream-of-consciousness yarn that touches on death, vivid memories of Kozelek’s life, and super-specific bits of pop culture — keep an ear out for shout-outs to actors Keith Carradine and Powers Boothe, True Detective, and a tell-all book on the Doors.

Stream “Ali/Spinks 2″ — which is the second song to surface from Universal Themes, after “The Possum” — below, and scroll down further for Sun Kil Moon’s tour dates. Kozelek has engagements booked through October (some of which will feature Shelley and singer-songwriter Neil Halstead assisting Sun Kil Moon), with plans to perform in the U.S., Asia, Australia, and Europe. Universal Themes is out June 2 via Caldo Verde Records and currently available for pre-order.
