The follow-up to 2011's Gravity the Seducer is due out February 15 via Ladytron Music and !K7, featuring previously shared singles "The Animals" and "The Island." Pre-order your copy here.
Speaking about the record, singer Helen Marnie said: "For us, it's like getting together with an old friend. You've both changed, but still have that common ground. Familiarity crossed with excitement." Daniel Hunt adds: "It's diverse and emotional. It's a lot heavier than Gravity, which was an intentionally more sedate, ethereal record. The atmospheres are there, but there's more urgency underneath."
A press release describes the album as such: "Their self-titled sixth album is the band's most definitive work to date, full of catchy hooks, rousing riffs, sweeping melodies, and thick textured harmonies.... Distilling 20 years of experimentation into one propulsive album, Ladytron again push the boundaries of electronic pop in invigorating directions with thirteen songs that explore the disquiet of our times. Loaded with their trademark analogue synths propelled by relentless rhythm, Ladytron is a hypercharged album that radiates a visceral urgency."
