They’re the first new material from the band since December 2015’s “Christmas Will Break Your Heart”.

Meanwhile, James Murphy has written a lengthy post on the band’s Facebook page providing an update on the album’s progress (“1 more vocal and 2 more mixes to go”) as well as a detailed explanation of why there’s no firm release date in place yet for the record.
