!! OMG, Grizzly Bear announce new album and tour !!

Grizzly Bear are back with their first LP in three years (cue the ‘hibernation’ puns). Due out on September 18 via Warp Records, the album has yet to be titled but the band has shared its track listing (below), a new song called “Sleeping Ute” (also below) and an exhaustive list of world tour dates (after the jump).
As you may recall, Grizzly Bear’s last album was 2009’s Veckatimest and prior to its release we conducted a phone interview with group member Ed Droste (the one with the dog in the above photo). Revisit that here if you need the 411 on Grizzly Bear.
Here is the new album’s track listing:
1. “Sleeping Ute”
2. “Speak In Rounds”
3. “Adelma”
4. “Yet Again”
5. “The Hunt”
6. “A Simple Answer”
7. “What’s Wrong”
8. “gun-shy”
9. “Half Gate”
10. “Sun In Your Eyes”
Have a listen to “Sleeping Ute”:
