Listen To Alt-J Sample Miley Cyrus in New 'Hunger Of The Pine' Track

Alt-J have sampled Miley Cyrus in their new song ‘Hunger Of The Pine’.

The Mercury Prize winners sample the line “I’m a female rebel”, which is taken from the song '4x4' from Miley’s album Bangerz.

The track is the first to be unveiled from their second album This Is All Yours, which is set for release September 22.

Speaking to Zane Lowe on BBC Radio 1, keyboardist Gus Unger-Hamilton said of the track: "It came quite late really - a lot of songs  were ideas we've been batting around over the two years we've been touring,"

He also spoke of the recent depature of their bassist, Gwil Sainsbury, adding: "He left right before we started making the album basically. He was not enjoying aspects of the lifestyle of being in a band”.

Alt-J kick off their tour in Glasgow on September 18.
