The Walkmen confirm album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 30 March 2012
Seasoned New York clan The Walkmen are to continue on from the class act that was their last album ‘Lisbon’ with new suite ‘Heaven’, it’s been announced.
Set to surface via Bella Union on 4 Jun, it features Fleet Foxes’ Robin Pecknold on a track named ‘No One Ever Sleeps’, with Pitchfork confirming other titles as ‘We Can’t Be Beat’, ‘Song for Leigh’, ‘Heartbreaker’, and ‘Love Is Luck’.
