Two Door Cinema Club have announced details of their fourth album, ‘False Alarm’. As well as releasing the albums artwork the band revealed that, ‘False Alarm’, will be released, on the 14th of June 2019 via Prolifica Inc / [PIAS]. The announcement comes as the band have also shared their new track, ‘Satellite’.
The Irish band launched details of the album and ‘Satellite’ in a modern and tech-savvy manner, during a Facebook Live broadcast, which saw the album being launched into space. The live streaming session came complete with commentary from the band and a Q&A session with fans.
The trio will follow-up 2016’s ‘Gameshow’ with, ‘False Alarm’, which was recorded in London and LA with producer Jacknife Lee – who has worked with the likes of The Killers, U2 and REM. Meanwhile, ‘Satellite’ – the latest track to be taken from the band’s upcoming album following the recently released single ‘Talk’ – gives listeners a taste of the Northern Irish band’s new album, which sees the band going in a new direction from the trios previous sound.
The band’s fourth album, ‘False Alarm’, will address and tackle some of today’s social and environmental issues – whether it be Brexit or man-made disaster that is climate change – through a genre-bending lens of pop, disco, rock and soul. According to a press release, the album, ‘False Alarm’, “wryly scans and satirises the social and environmental woes of 2019.”
Speaking about the album, ‘False Alarm’, frontman Alex Trimble, said: “I love the pop thing, I love experimenting and going to different places, I love doing things that are a little bit wonky and I love the idea of doing something we haven’t done before, why can’t we do all of those things at once? That’s what it was, doing whatever felt right… It sounds like Two Door Cinema Club – not a Two Door Cinema Club there’d ever been before but that’s what I love. We can always do something new but it always feels like something we’ve done.”
The announcement comes as the trio are set to hit the festival circuit, this summer, which will cement their reputation as festival-favourites, which will include a string of hotly anticipated headline appearances at Tramlines, Y Not, Truck Festival, and Victorious. They are also set to make highly anticipated appearances at Glastonbury, Big Weekend, Sea Sessions and many more. A full list of the band’s live dates can be found below.
