Scottish indie rockers We Were Promised Jetpacks are set to release their third album, Unraveling, on FatCat this year. Its first single, “Safety in Numbers,” is a dose of arena-ready indie rock (it’s already gaining U2 and Coldplay comparisons) and it can be streamed over at Entertainment Weekly or below.

WWPJ are also going on an international tour that hits NYC on November 22 at Webster Hall. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (7/11) at 10 AM.
