Cold War Kids have announced details of their new album.
Produced by Lars Stalfors, 'New Age Norms 1' is set to land on November 1 and marks the first in a three-album trilogy from the California-based quintet.
The news comes with the premiere of their new upbeat single, Waiting For Your Love, a song about finally finding the person you've been looking for. It follows the previously shared album tracks Complainer and 4th of July, their first new music in more than two years that arrived this summer. Lead vocalist and guitarist Nathan Willett said:
"Last summer we were on tour when Kanye was putting out his new records. Pusha T, Kids See Ghosts, Nas, etc. They were eight songs each. It was so fun waking up to these brand new records and taking them in as a whole while hanging out, working out, talking, pushing each other.
"I knew then I wanted our next release to be three volumes - eight songs each. Without the baggage and hoopla of a full record/tour/concept - more spread out - loose and inspired. Make it feel like you are listening to music that was made the night before. New Age Norms is a phrase Maust had written on a tee shirt. It seemed to summarize this moment we are in as a band and as a country. More on that later..."
