The Wild Things are turning up the heat this summer with a raunchy love affair

The Wild Things have have announced the first chapter of their "raunchy love story", Knock Down, Drag Out.

Set for release on June 19, the tune tells the tale of "a fiery love-affair in New Orleans. A girl has quickly, maddeningly fallen in lust and isn’t afraid to tell the whole town."

Sydney Rae White sings: “Your body is electric, flowers always bloom.

“You are a vision in light, make your move."

"knock down, drag out" happens to be a metaphor for heavy sex.

Guitarist Rob Kendrick and Marcus Maschwitz also directed the promo.

Fans will have to wait until later in the summer to hear the tale's climax, in the follow-up I Can’t Wait, with the gap in between the releases intended to represent how long the relationship lasts.

The pop rock band released their second album, Afterglow,

Their second album, Afterglow, which was co-produced by none other than The Who’s Pete Townshend, landed last year.

A concept LP, the collection told the story of the residents of the fictional town of Valentine amidst a paranormal phenomenon.
