White Rabbits have new album? Yes.

Sweet news everybody! White Rabbits, those wonderful pop maestros that wowed me (and a good-sized handful of other people I'm betting) over in 2007 with Fort Nightly, have a new album coming out in May! Yes!

Recorded with the help of Nicholas Vernhes (Animal Collective, Deerhunter) over the course of four weeks, the new album It’s Frightening will land May 19th on tbd Records. How they found four weeks to write and record new songs amidst all that touring with The Walkmen, Spoon, The Cribs, White Denim and Tokyo Police Club I'll never know. But they have, and we get to reap in the melodious benefits. The first of which is "Percussion Gun," the first single from the new album. Check it out below.

As might be expected, the band is off on a new tour to support the new album. Dates can be found below.
