Detroit’s funnest band, Electric Six, have announced the release of their seventh studio album.
The record will be called 'Zodiac' and will hit stores on the last week of September."Now, why call the record 'Zodiac'?" The band pondered in a statement. "The answer: why do anything at all? Which is also a question. Which has an answer. The answer is....because it has already been written. While Zodiac is perhaps our most collaborative, most unique and most fun record, we also had nothing to do with it. You heard me. The experience of making a record called Zodiac has opened our eyes to how REAL all this shit is. The record was already made. All Electric Six did was not stand in the way."
If that's not enough, the band are soon to embark on their 'Rent Is Too Damn High!' tour through the USA and Europe, which kicks off in Grand Rapids, MI.
The full track listing for 'Zodiac' is:
1. After Hours
2.American Cheese

4. Countdown to the Countdown
5. Doom and Gloom and Doom and Gloom
6. Jam It In The Hole
