    They've been in the recording studio for a while according to their instagram, so I'll be staggered if we don't get anything from them at some point in 2021.

    If Riccardio isn't on the album it's a wasted opportunity tbh, he was in the studio with them!

    It seems pretty locked in that he is based on that video.

    An inconsequential shift as the continents drift.

    sometimes I forgot just how good this band is and then I put on literally any song they've released and I'm like "oh. yeah"

    new music soon pls

    I was the same. It's like why did I never give this a shot. One of my favorite bands now.

    and (not quite live but might be my single favourite moment in their discography so far):

    That Middle East song and album is brilliant, an all time favourite of mine.

    Gang of Youths are definitely a band that comes alive in the live setting, so much fun.

    I sincerely hope they break through in America/Europe, they have done a mountain of touring and hard work to try

    yeah, that Middle East album (the original 8-track version) is legit an all-timer. wish I'd liked their second one nearly as much, but oh well

    I hear you, almost would have been fitting for them to be a one album and done band, with the one being perfect

    On the subject of "Blood"/The Middle East, this cover by Mree might be my favorite cover ever, of anything.

    I want a new Gang of Youths album. I guess this means more waiting. I think the album was originally about Dave losing his Dad. Maybe it was too personal to commercialize?

    Does this mean no Daniel Ricciardo backing vocals on the new album?

    I thought some radio posted a vocal section (stem?) from the album a while back

    Fairly glowing endorsement, I tend to agree that Gang of Youths seem to have the entire package, they just need a touch of luck to fully explode.
