At the weekend, the band performed on the Andrew Marr Show to debut new song ‘Paper Cages’ while also taking a dig at fellow guest Prime Minister Theresa May.

Speaking to NME last October, frontman Alex Kapranos described his band’s new album as “the perfect introduction to the decade that’s about to come”.

“We wanted to take the sounds that are available to us now and make the sound that you haven’t heard before – the sound of the future,” Kapranos explained. “When you’re recording in 2017 you need to be looking ahead to the next thing. What haven’t people even heard in 2018?”
