M83 Reveals Full Album Details
Now that he's gotten his ambient kicks with this past fall's
Digital Shades Vol. 1, Anthony Gonzalez is ready to release his fifth album as
M83, titled
Saturdays = Youth. The album is apparently focused on more structured songs than the
Digital Shades material, though "Couleurs", available for streaming now, doesn't seem too reliant on traditional pop song structure.
As
previously reported, Gonzalez recorded
Saturdays with producers Ken Thomas (Sigur Rós, Suede, Cocteau Twins, the Sugarcubes) and Ewan Pearson (the Rapture, Ladytron).
Mute will release the album on April 15.
"Graveyard Girl" will be the album's first single.
Saturdays = Youth:
01 You, Appearing
02 Kim & Jessie
03 Skin of the Night
04 Graveyard Girl
05 Couleurs
06 Up!
07 We Own the Sky
08 Highway of Endless Dreams
09 Too Late
10 Dark Moves of Love
11 Midnight Souls Still Remain
