Songwriter Robin Pecknold has been teasing the comeback of his band FLEET FOXES for almost a year now and now the result is finally happening this summer. Crack-Up is the band’s first album since 2011 and it arrives on June 16 via Nonesuch Records.
It was recorded at various locations across the United States between July 2016 and January 2017 and sees the band returning to familiar musical territory but… well, with a bit less beard this time. You can watch the video for the epic first single Third of May / Ōdaigahara below. A second track arrives in the form of Fool’s Errand and is also up for stream via a haunting music video. Oh, and don’t forget that there are new tour dates by the band as well.
