Wolf Parade get into some heavy stuff on chirpy tune "You're Dreaming"

29 August 2017, 15:00 | Written by Laurence Day

Wolf Parade tease upcoming comeback record Cry Cry Cry with supercharged single "You're Dreaming", which looks at last year's political clusterfuckery.

The new single comes with a video inspired by Riverdance (maybe? We're just guessing) from artist Scorpion Dagger, who also created the visual component for Wolf Parade's "Valley Boy" single.

Cry Cry Cry is Wolf Parade's fourth and follows 2010's Expo 86 album and last year's comeback release EP 4. It was produced with John Goodmanson at Robert Lang Studios in Seattle, with Greg Calbi on mastering duties in NYC.

"Wolf Parade said to one another when we decided to reunite that we weren’t going to do just a reunion tour and just play Apologies To The Queen Mary and make a bunch of cash and check back out 18 months later," the band's Spencer Krug told us last year. "We said, if we do this, it’s to start up the band again in the interest of making new music, and touring that new music, as well as, of course, touring old songs, as any band does... we tried to make it as if we never stopped."

Wolf Parade have a bunch of shows confirmed for the coming months, including support slots with Arcade Fire. UK shows will be revealed in the near future.

Tracklist:

  1. Lazarus Online
  2. You're Dreaming
  3. Valley Boy
  4. Incantation
  5. Flies On The Sun
  6. Baby Blue
  7. Weaponized
  8. Who Are Ya
  9. Am I An Alien Here
  10. Artificial Life
  11. King Of Piss And Paper

Cry Cry Cry is out via Sub Pop on 6 October.
