Hippo Campus announce new album 'LP3'

Following on from the enormous love for their recently released EP 'Good Dog, Bad Dream', Hippo Campus have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving early next year.

The new aptly-named full-length 'LP3' will become their third LP to date, is being previewed by the new lead single 'Boys', and is set to be released on the 4th February via Grand Jury.

Speaking about the new offering, frontman Jake Luppen said, "It was about this party I went to where I had all these crazy experiences and then woke up feeling like, "I need to change my life right now", the next day I went to New York and came back, hung out with our new manager, and felt slightly better. It's like that feeling when you're drunk and then you wake up hungover and you hate yourself.

"It’s also about exploring sexuality, and the elusiveness of it. I’ve always felt that sexual preference is something that exists beyond the binary. At different points in your life you feel different ways, and that’s ok. In this track we’re kind of comparing that journey to our first trips to NY. It’s this huge place that is always moving past us while we’re trying to grab a hold of it."
