M83 announce new LP “Junk”, share new single “Do It, Try It”

Arnaud Marty — Tue, 01 Mar 2016 23:02:16 +0000

[su_dropcap style=”simple”]W[/su_dropcap]e already knew that the French synth-pop band M83 were ready to give a follow-up to their 2011’s album “Hurry Up, We’Re Dreaming”. Now things get more concrete with the announcement of this upcoming seventh LP “Junk”. The release is planned for April 8 on Naïve/Mute. And in order to make you wait, Annie Mac just premiered the amazing first single titled “Do It, Try It”.

Back in December, Gonzalez noted on Stereogum that he was inspired by 1970s and 1980s television shows such as Punky Brewster and Who’s the Boss?, stating, “I feel like TV shows are starting to sound and look the same. There’s no more passion anymore. So this album is a tribute to those old-fashioned shows.” You can hear this retro and psyche sound in the piano riff that goes all over the song but also in the powerful chorus the band has the secret of.

In a press release, he also declared: “Anything we create today is going to end up being space junk at one point anyway, and I find it really fascinating and scary at the same time – beautiful too in a way. I have this image of pieces of humanity floating in space, lost forever. It also means that nowadays everything goes so fast and everybody is kind of throwing away art in a certain manner. People will listen to an album for instance and just pick a track they like to put on a playlist. They’re not going to take the time to listen to an album anymore because they have to jump on the next thing.”

Tracklisting of “Junk”:
01 Do It, Try It
02 Go! [ft. Mai Lan]
03 Walkway Blues [ft. Jordan Lawlor]
04 Bibi the Dog [ft. Mai Lan]
05 Moon Crystal
06 For the Kids [ft. Susanne Sundfør]
07 Solitude

10 Road Blaster
11 Tension
12 Atlantique Sud [ft. Mai Lan]
13 Time Wind [ft. Beck]
14 Ludivine
15 Sunday Night 1987

[su_dropcap style=”simple”]F[/su_dropcap]or those youngsters who don’t know that New Order are a 80’s band, they have now more proofs. They shared a new video for their track “Singularity” taken from their last album “Music Complete” out last year via Mute

With “I Am Chemistry” we can for sure notice that the band haven’t lost anything of their sound, since it sounds weird but appealing, completely psychedelic and dreamy.
