New Phoenix Song and Album Info!

What a lovely way to wake up on Monday morning, to the news of a new Phoenix song! The band's website, after months of displaying only cryptic names and sounds, now features a short animation of cursive text, which says that the album Bankrupt! will be released the week of April 22nd (the 22nd in the UK, 23rd in the US), and then links to a brand new homepage featuring the album artwork and track list, as well as links to the band's various social media.

Check out the new single "Entertainment" and the unofficial lyric video on Pitchfork. I love the song. It's fun and summery and pop-y, but underlaid by classic Phoenix styling. It gives me great hope for the album (as if I needed a reason to have great hope). What do you think?



Here is the track list for Bankrupt! :


01 Entertainment
02 The Real Thing
03 SOS in Bel Air
04 Trying to Be Cool
05 Bankrupt!
06 Drakkar Noir
07 Chloroform
08 Don't
09 Bourgeois
10 Oblique City
