As Vaccines' fans grow more and more excited in the run-up to new album English Graffiti, the band have now unveiled the LP's artwork and tracklist.
The indie heroes have been teasing fans with tracks and teasers of new material for a while now - but now The Vaccines have confirmed that their third album English Graffiti will drop on 25 May via Columbia Records.
The tracklising is as follows:
1. Handsome
2. Dream Lover
3. Minimal Affection
4. 20/20
5. (All Afternoon) In Love
6. Denial
7. Want You So Bad
8. Radio Bikini
9. Maybe I Could Hold You
10. Give Me A Sign
11. Undercover
"Well it's all English graffiti, and that's what got me thinking," frontman Justin Young told Spin of the album's title. "That we all watch the same movies and drink from the same Coke bottles and have the same cultural references, wherever you go in the world now. And we're so connected. I'm talking to you from Mexico. But on the other hand, there is this real disconnect. Because I'm not looking out. I'm looking down. And I'm looking at what my friends are doing back in England through constructed reality.
"People don't need to write bands letters asking them to come to their country now. They can just say "come to Brazil." It's so impersonal. And I think from my perspective that affects the way I love and live. And ironically I think our generation feels a greater disconnect than any before it."
