Titus Andronicus have announced a new studio album, their first since 2012's Local Business. It's called The Most Lamentable Tragedy, which theatre buffs will recognize as another Shakespeare reference. That's the cover art above, which was done by Nolen Strals. They've also shared the lyric video for a new song called "Dimed Out".
The Most Lamentable Tragedy will be out July 28 via Merge as a 2xCD and 3xLP. It was produced by Kevin McMahon and lead guitarist Adam Reich, and features Owen Pallett on violin. In an interview with Grantland, Patrick Stickles said the album comprises 29 tracks over 93 minutes. The album also features covers of Daniel Johnston’s "I Had Lost My Mind" and the Pogues’ "A Pair of Brown Eyes".
