NEW ALBUM DUE OUT APRIL 7
VIA THE BAND’S OWN COLLECTED WORKS IMPRINT

“The New Pornographers are the best
pop band in the world today.” – Buzzfeed

“The talent in this band is abundant.” – NPR

“There’s a brightness when [the
band comes] together.” – NPR

“…songs suited for big rooms, all huge
choruses and shimmering synthesizers.” – Billboard

Premiering on Noisey alongside an interview with New Pornographers band leaderA.C. Newman, “This is the World of the Theater“ is the latest track from the critically acclaimed supergroup’s forthcoming album Whiteout Conditions. 

Due out April 7, Whiteout Conditions is the first release on the band’s own Collected Works Records imprint, in partnership with Concord Records / Caroline Australia. The group also recently premiered the track “High Ticket Attractions” with an interactive lyric video, directed by Chris Shier.

Whiteout Conditions is available for pre-order with a glow-in-the-dark poster now on the band’s website. The New Pornographers will also tour the U.S. and Europe this spring, starting with a headlining performance at the NPR SXSW opening night showcase in March.

Of writing the new record, founder and frontman A.C. Newman notes that, “At the beginning of this record, there was some thinking that we wanted it to be like a Krautrock Fifth Dimension. Of course, our mutated idea of what Krautrock is probably doesn’t sound like Krautrock at all. But we were thinking: Let’s try and rock in a different way.”

Since their debut in 2000, The New Pornographers have released six studio albums including their most recent, ‘Brill Bruisers’, hailed as an “exuberant, synthpop-infused set” by Rolling Stone, “infectious” by Harper’s Bazaar and “the grand and purposeful hookfest that you would hope these guys would come back with” by Stereogum. Pitchfork went on to note that “with the futurist sound of Brill Bruisers, the whole band embraces a more electric version of itself—bulked-up in chrome-plated armor, firing on all cylinders, and ready to steamroll anything in its path.” The band celebrated the release with a special NPR Music “First Listen Live” concert at the legendary Brill Building, and performed songs from the album on both Conan and the Late Show with David Letterman.
