In an interview with NME in 2018, frontman Liam Fray said that their latest single ‘Heavy Jacket‘ was “one of the most unusual songs we’ve done”. Comparing the upcoming album to the bands previous releases, Fray said “It’s more dancey, but obviously with real players and a human element”. The lyric video for ‘Heavy Jacket‘ was posted to the Courteeners YouTube channel on Monday, following the album announcement.

The ten new tracks take the following order:
