Be Your Own Pet have confirmed details of their forthcoming second record.

The follow-up to last year’s self-titled debut album will be called Get Awkward, Pitchfork reports, and will be out through the combined efforts of Thurston Moore’s Ecstatic Peace and Universal in the US and XL everywhere else.

The album, out here on the 17th of March, will feature this, and this, and this:

‘Super Soaked’
‘Black Hole’
‘Heart Throb’
‘Becky’
‘The Kelly Affair’
‘Twisted Nerve’
‘Blow Yr Mind’
‘Bummer Time’
‘Bitches Leave’
‘You're a Waste’
‘Food Fight!’
‘Zombie Graveyard Party’
‘What's Your Damage’
‘Creepy Crawl’
‘The Beast Within’

Talking to Pitchfork back in May, the band’s guitarist Jonas Stein shed a little bit of light on what it might sound like, pricking up DiS’s ears in the process: “There's some really raunchy stuff, and there's some really poppy stuff… I've been into the Kinks. Nathan's been digging on the Misfits a lot lately. We've been listening to some T. Rex, and we really like Animal Collective a lot."

Woohoo!!

New album would mean a UK tour next year?
Look forward to this.


Hopefully.

I loved these guys for about 5 minutes.

I'm sure I could love them for five minutes more.

Super Soaked?

Bummer Time?!

This is going to be great!


HOORAY!


I wonder

if 'The Kelly Affair' is a hard hitting political commentary about the corruption surrounding the apparent suicide of Dr David Kelly.

Closely followed by Zombie Graveyard Party!


yay!

can't wait :)
