We’re still patiently waiting for Brand New‘s fifth album, and it looks like we may be getting closer. Last year they put out the single “Mene” and this Friday (5/20) they’ll release a new single, “I Am A Nightmare.” There’s a 30-second clip on Amazon right now and it’s just enough to get us excited about this.
UPDATE: The full song is out! Listen below. You can pre-order the vinyl, which comes with a digital download, via the band’s Procrastinate! Music Traitors label.
As mentioned, the band will go on a co-headlining tour with Modest Mouse this summer, including NYC on July 14 at Madison Square Garden. A few tickets for that show are still available.
