American indie rock band MGMT have announced that a "fancy new album" will be released in 2023.
The New York-based duo revealed the news while announcing their participation at the Just Like Heaven festival later this year.
"We will be returning to the stage for the first time in nearly four years on May 13th at Just Like Heaven Festival in Pasadena, and we'll be doing a unique MGMT performance, featuring our entire first album, Oracular Spectacular," Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser said in a statement posted to social media.
They added, "We've stocked up on rust remover and are constructing a state of the art elf workshop so as to attempt to provide the most experimental live show since we were wee lads playing hockey in the middle of songs etc."
Regarding new music that VanWyngarden promised last summer, the statement said, "Furthermore, keep checking back in with us because we've been making some fun new recordings and have a fancy new album (LOL) that should be finished at some point this year, which is the year 2023."
MGMT's last album, Little Dark Age, was released in 2018.
