Hercules & Love Affair New Album Details

_Blue Songs_ out January 31

Hercules & Love Affair have unveiled some juicy information about their forthcoming new album – their first since their self-titled debut in 2008 (which led to them being lauded as one of The Quietus’s favourite artists of that year).

Blue Songs will be released on January 31, with the list of contributors to include Kele Okereke, Aerea Negrot and Shaun Wright. Talking about the record, Andy Butler said: "There’s definitely jacking house and there’s definitely even more full-blown disco, but there’s also more experimental, softer music."

The tracklisting is as follows:

‘Painted Eyes’

‘My House’

‘Answers Come In Dreams’

‘Leonora’

‘Boy Blue’

‘Blue Songs’

‘Falling’

‘I Can’t Wait’

‘Step Up’

‘Visitor’

‘It’s Alright’
