Mystery Jets will return with their new album ‘Radlands‘ in April, the band have confirmed.
The group’s fourth studio effort will be released on April 30th through Rough Trade, and is the follow up to 2010’s ‘Serotonin‘. The LP was recorded initially in Austin, Texas, before being completed in Dan Carey’s South London studio.
“All we brought on the plane were the guitars on our backs, so we ended up borrowing all this amazing valve gear from an old guy called Jack who ran a little studio up in the hills – which is why the songs sound the way they do,” frontman Blaine Harrison has said on the album’s creation.
“In the daytime we wrote lyrics on the porch and in the evenings a family of deer would gather in the backyard to hear us play.”
‘Radlands’ tracklist:
‘Radlands’
‘Had Me At Hello’
‘Someone Purer’
‘Lonestar’
‘Greatest Hits’
‘Saviour’
‘The Nothing
‘Roses’
‘Sister Everett’
