alt-J announce new album 'The Dream'

Following up the enormous success behind their 2017 LP 'Relaxer', alt-J have now returned to announce their plans for a new studio album, arriving early next year.

The new full-length 'The Dream' is being previewed by the new lead single 'U&ME', which comes accompanied by a stunning Prosper Unger-Hamilton-directed video, and is set to be released on the 11th February via Infectious Music / BMG.

Speaking about the new offering, frontman Joe Newman said, “It gathered momentum on it’s own, it was best to just get out of its way. We were just there.”

While bandmate Gus Unger-Hamilton added, “It’s about being at a festival with your best friends, having a good time, togetherness, and the feeling in life that nothing could be any better than it is right now.”
