Alt-rock weirdos MGMT have officially announced the release of their new album, Little Dark Age. The band’s fourth full-length and follow-up to their 2013 self-titled effort is due out February 9th via Columbia Records.
Little Dark Age was produced by MGMT alongside former Chairlift member Patrick Wimberly (Kelela, Blood Orange) and frequent collaborator Dave Fridmann (Spoon, Tame Impala). Recording sessions took place at Tarbox Road Studios in Cassadaga, New York. The 10-track effort includes the previously revealed title track, “When You Die”, and “Hand It Over”.
