Foster The People Announce New Album 'Supermodel', Stream "Coming Of Age"

California indie rockers Foster The People have officially announced they will released their sophomore album titled 'Supermodel' on March 14th via Columbia Records.

The album follows their debut 'Torches', which was released in 2011, and to give a first taste they're premiering the catchy lead single "Coming Of Age", accompanied with its video.

Speaking in 2012, frontman Mark Foster commented: "One thing about Foster The People is that it's taking pieces of a lot of different genres of music and kind of melding them together... This next record's going to be more evolved; it's going to be a clearer picture of what I've had in my head when it comes to that vision."

The tracklist for Supermodel is as follows: 

01. Are You What You Want To Be
02. Ask Yourself
03. Coming Of Age
04. Nevermind
05. Pseudologia Fantastica
06. The Angelic Welcome Of Mr. Jones
07. Best Friend
08. A Beginner’s Guide To Destroying The Moon
09. Goats In Trees
10. The Truth
11. Fire Escape
12. Tabloid Super Junky
