In-between Flea's new stint in the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, the Red Hot Chili Peppers have started teasing a new track, Nerve Flip.

Due to hit all streaming platforms this Friday – June 3 – the song was originally released as a bonus track on the Japanese edition of recent album Unlimited Love. Now, though, the Chilis plan to make the biggest rock album of the year even bigger – check out a teaser below…

Back in February, RHCP suggested that much more new music would follow Unlimited Love, too.

Returning guitarist John Frusciante confirmed that the band had "recorded almost 50 pieces of new music".

"We’re gonna put out music by the handful – literally," added frontman Anthony Kiedis. "Don’t be surprised if another wheelbarrow of songs comes your way in the near future. We have a lot of shit to turn people onto."
