They're also heading out on the road.

You could be forgiven for thinking Brisbane party dogs Velociraptor have not done all that much in recent months, but the band have today revealed they've actually done a fair bit, announcing they've signed a record deal and giving us a brand new song to fall in love with.

The many-limbed garage pop beast has signed with Dot Dash/Remote Control for their debut full-length record which will be released later this year. The band's last release, the mini-album The World Warriors, came out in September of 2012. Dot Dah is also home to acts like Courtney Barnett, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Teeth & Tongue, Sunbeam Sound Machine and Dirty Three, among others.

Velociraptor have given us a new tune to enjoy, a slight taste of what's to come, in keeping with tradition it is another song named after and written about a girl; this time the muse is Ramona. Hear all about her below:

The band get back out on the road for some shows in April, with a few new faces joining the line up after the band lost a few of their members (bound to happen when there are so many of them), ensuring they're still performing as a full ten-piece ensemble when in full flight, trimmed down to eight when DZ Deathrays are out on the road.

The dates are below; tickets are on sale this Friday.
