White Denim have revealed the details of their new album.
The follow up to 2016's ‘Stiff’ will be called 'Performance' and will arrive on August 25 via City Slang Records, with whom the band have recently signed.
Discussing the making of the record, singer and guitarist James Petralli said:
“There is something absurd and isolating in continuing this pursuit for personal connection on such a wide scale. When writing an album I essentially leave my actual life, retreat deeper into myself and as it nears completion, I evaluate my work based on my own extremely skewed notion of what is widely relatable and still legitimately cool. My idea of cool is most significantly shaped by Steve’s [Terebecki - bassist] body language when we are talking through ideas in session."
