Nothing But Thieves revealed the full tracklist for their upcoming third studio album Moral Panic. The record is due for release on 23 October 2020 via Sony Music UK on standard CD, LP, digital download and streaming. Exclusive Amazon picture disk vinyl and limited edition yellow casettes are still available to pre-order online.
Social media posts from Friday displayed the full hand-written tracklist and confirmed the titles of the eleven tracks to feature on Moral Panic. The album will open with their latest explosive release ‘Unperson‘ followed by the first official single ‘Is Everybody Going Crazy?‘. Nothing But Thieves have repeatedly described their upcoming album on previous posts as being “about the tension in the air” and the tracklist immediately draws attention to the themes of fear, dillusion, loss of freedom and mass panic with song names like ‘Phobia‘, ‘This Feels Like The End‘, ‘Impossible‘ and title track ‘Moral Panic‘.

So far the Southend alternative rock quintet have released three official singles from the highly anticipated new record, all accompanied by music videos. Earlier in March this year their dropped the first song ‘Is Everybody Going Crazy?‘ which has already reached more than twelve million streams on Spotify. It was followed by the more mellow and melancholic ‘Real Love Song‘ from June, and most recently the energetic and dystopian ‘Unperson‘ which raised the expectations even higher.
During the Summer Well Festival in Romania in August, the Bucharest Symphonic Orchestra performed a beautiful live orchestral rendition of ‘Real Love Song‘ as part of the ‘Our Night Picnic’ symphonic project. Nothing But Thieves have since released the unique collaboration as a separate alternative single and will likely feature it on the official digital version of Moral Panic.

Alongside the three official singles and music videos, the band also dropped a cryptic 30-seconds teaser, potentially of title track ‘Moral Panic‘ but not yet confirmed. The snippet features frontman Conor Mason singing the haunting “What we’ve become” over an emergency broadcast narrating a chaotic news coverage: “There’s a tension in the air / Everyone can feel it / 7 reported dead in the street / It permeates everything / It’s in our homes / Our chlorinated chicken / 7 million reported dead / Please stare at whatever clickbait debate next goes viral / Plastic opinions and drive thru funerals / Everything has a price / And then you“. With recent tracklist reveal and all releases, it seems Nothing But Thieves have a very strong message for everyone, coming on 23 October.
The confirmed tracklist of Moral Panic is as follows:
1. Unperson
2. Is Everybody Going Crazy?
3. Moral Panic
4. Real Love Song
5. Phobia
6. This Feels Like The End
7. Free If We Want It
