The Avalanches have long been at work on the follow up to 2000’s well-loved Since I Left You, and we’ve heard all sorts of rumors about what the album might sound like. Tonight, after debuting their brand new single “Frankie Sinatra,” which features MF DOOM and Danny Brown–the song that, in 2014, Brown said would “change the world”—they finally announced a new record in an interview with Zane Lowe on Beats 1. Wildflower is coming soon and features 21 songs. In addition to DOOM and Brown, they revealed in an interview that it features Father John Misty, Toro Y Moi, Jennifer Herrema of Royal Trux, Camp Lo, Biz Markie, and Warren Ellis of Dirty Three. (Father John Misty, Herrema, and Brown previously appeared in a teaser video for the album called “Since They Left Us.”) Find the album art, which they said is inspired by Sly and the Family Stone's There's a Riot Goin' On, below.
In their interview with Zane Lowe, they revealed that Jens Lekman and Connan Mockasin were among the artists who recorded for the album, but didn't make the final cut.
Since I Left You landed at Number 10 in Pitchfork’s “Top 200 Albums of the 2000s.” Read “10 Times Hell Has Frozen Over Since the Last Avalanches Album” on the Pitch.
