Zayn Malik’s latest single is due out Wednesday, and he has teased it with a short snippet of the dark accompanying video.

The One Direction member-turned-solo-star revealed in a tweet that “Sour Diesel” is set to drop on Apple Music at 12 p.m. EST, while sharing a 24-second video clip.

Those hoping for a tease of the music itself, however, will need to wait with bated breath for the track’s release, as the video snippet reveals only the visuals from the track’s video, with dark imagery in which a masked figure douses an area with gasoline, then flips open a lighter as the video cuts to black.

The singer has recently been building up to the release of his second solo album, which will follow 2016’s “Mind of Mine”. Earlier this month, he shared a cover of the Elvis song “Can’t Help Falling in Love” with the track’s YouTube description reading “Z2 is coming…”

Malik’s latest official tracks include “Let Me” released back in April, and “Entertainer,” which followed in May. JB
