Metronomy announce new double LP, share "Salted Caramel Ice Cream"

Metronomy have announced Metronomy Forever which will be out September 13 via Because Music. It’s a 17-track double album and frontman Joseph Mount says he thinks it’s Metronomy’s best album ever. You may have already heard “Lately,” and Metronomy have now released the second single from the album, “Salted Caramel Ice Cream,” which has the band headed into Funkytown. “I wanted to write a song that would get played at weddings,” says Mount. The video for the song, which Mount directed, was inspired by Rammstein’s “Sonne” video which he watched on a VHS tape of old 120 Minutes episodes. “I’d never seen them before and it blew my mind. This video is a sort of homage to that, but with an added story about the gentrification of ice cream parlours.” Watch that below

The band are on the European festival circuit this summer and have just announced a UK tour in the fall. Those dates are listed below.
