Arcade Fire To Release New Single Very Soon
By Jeffrey Hyatt
As the Arcade Fire slowly but surely work their way back onto the music scene, the band has issued a hand-written postcard message on their official website revealing that they are planning on releasing a new, 12-inch single in the next couple of weeks.
The group’s next album (might be titled The Suburbs) is possibly due for a June 1 release. But probably not. But maybe!
“Just finishing up pressing our new 12-inch,” the band declares in their digital postcard – humorously addressed to The Internet.
“Should be in stores in the next couple weeks. God willing.”
Joel’s Arcade Fire Blog did note a few days back that Amazon recently listed a new Arcade Fire single called Suburbs/Month of May for sale June 1, 2010. But a band representative put the kibosh on the Amazon listing, calling it incorrect. It could all be part of one, giant promo strategy, so we shall see. Something’s coming, now it’s just a matter of when.
Arcade Fire are scheduled to headline the Reading and Leeds Festivals in August.
