Following their acclaimed debut album from 2022 on Alien Transistor, What Are People For? now release their first 7inch single from the upcoming album, with a dark ambient r’n’b banger "Criminals" on the A-side, telling tales of snoozing criminals and tantalising promises of "one day we will all be rich."

The already legendary B-side features a charming smokefilled-bubblegum Spanish & English cover of the Cypress Hill song "Illusions", together with The Notwist, which they developed whilst on tour together last year. Obviously, a product of the recent legalisation of marijuana in Germany: Ich liebe dich Marianne.
