‘Demons’ is the second track on Trouble Will Find Me, the group’s sixth album, which is set to be released on May 20 on 4AD.

Trouble Will Find Me is the follow-up to 2010’s High Violet, which debuted at number three in the US Billboard chart. During the three-year gap between High Violet and Trouble Will Find Me, guitarists Bryce and Aaron Dessner, along with singer Matt Berninger, worked on a multimedia production, The Long Count, which also featured vocal contributions from Kim and Kelley Deal, Shara Worden and Tunde Adebimpe.

The group’s new album features guest appearances from St Vincent, Sufjan Stevens, Sharon Van Etten and Arcade Fire’s Richard Reed Parry.
