Damon Albarn has got to be one of the busiest dudes out there, evidenced further with today’s announcement that he’s back together with his band The Good, The Bad & The Queen and will be releasing a new album. The group is ending its 11-year hiatus with Merrie Land, their second album, which will be released this coming November 16 via their newly created label Studio 13.
Co-produced between the band and Tony Visconti, the album will feature 10 new songs that were written in (and influenced by) this current Brexit era climate. The Good, the Bad & the Queen have also shared today one of the new cuts, namely the title track. Hear that, and find additional details, below.
