Arcade Fire have announced that former Talking Heads frontman David Byrne will feature on the new deluxe version of their 2010 album 'The Suburbs'.
Byrne has recorded backing vocals for a new track, 'Speaking In Tongues', which is one of two new songs on the re-release. The other is titled 'Culture War'.
The new edition is set to be released on June 27 and will also include a new version of 'Wasted Hours', which has been re-titled 'Wasted Hours (A Life That We Can Live)'.
The re-released album will also include the band’s short film, 'Scenes From The Suburbs', which you can see the trailer for at the bottom of the page. A 'Making Of' documentary will also be part of the package.
The new tracks are set to receive their first play on BBC Radio 1 on May 23.
Arcade Fire return to the UK in June to headline Hyde Park.
