Gorillaz has announced that they will be releasing a new album titled Cracker Island, next year. The iconic group shared the album's title, artwork, and tracklist in an announcement on Wednesday, alongside a new single featuring Tame Impala.
“Cracker Island is the sound of change and the chorus of the collective,” Gorillaz guitarist Noodle said in a statement.
Murdoc Niccals added: “The hallowed tones of Cracker Island will soundtrack our collective ascension into the new dimension! JOIN ME."
Featured on the tracklist for the album are collaborations with Stevie Nicks, Adeleye Omotayo, Bad Bunny, and Beck, in addition to Tame Impala and Bootie Brown. The group shared the title track for the project back in June, featuring Thundercat.
Cracker Island will be the group's first album since 2020's Song Machine, Season One: Strange Timez. Fans will be able to catch the band live on the upcoming North American leg of Gorillaz's tour, which kicks off next month.
