The New Pornographers have announced their first album in four years, returning with Brill Bruisers this summer.
Brill Bruisers will be released by Matador on 25 August, preceded by its title-track (airing beneath). The LP will feature all the band’s key members: A.C Newman, Neko Case, Destroyer’s Dan Bejar and more.
“This is a celebration record,” Newman says in a press release. “After periods of difficulty, I am at a place where nothing in my life is dragging me down and the music reflects that. I’m grateful.”
