The National have announced a surprise new album called Laugh Track. As revealed during the band’s at their own Homecoming Festival in Cincinnati, Ohio on Friday, the album will arrive on Monday, September 18th at Midnight ET (via Uproxx).
Laugh Track arrives just five months after the release of the The National’s previous LP, First Two Pages of Frankenstein. Last month, the band premiered two new singles called “Space Invader” and “Alphabet City.”
Elsewhere during their Homecoming Festival set, The National performed their 2010 album High Violet in full and brought out Patti Smith to duet on “I Need My Girl.” The band returns to the stage for a second set on Saturday, during which they’ll perform Trouble Will Find Me in its entirety.
