Encyclopedia‘ will follow 2011’s ‘Portamento‘ as The Drums‘ third studio album in the autumn.

“‘Encyclopedia’ is full of magic and surprise while maintaining a serious, more weighty tone throughout,” frontman Jonny Pierce has told Spin.

“We were feeling very angry, confused and alone when we made this album, and we wanted to be very honest this time around, even if being honest meant making some people uncomfortable. We’ve left the beach for higher ground, always searching for hope.”
