Unknown Mortal Orchestra announce new double album 'V'

Following on from the release of their highly-praised 2018 LP 'IC-01 Hanoi', Unknown Mortal Orchestra have now announced their plans for a double studio album, arriving next month.

The new full-length 'V' include the previously shared outing 'I Killed Captain Cook', is being previewed by the new lead single 'Layla', and is set to be released on the 17th March via Jagjaguwar.

Speaking about the new release, group leader Ruban Nielson said, “In Hawaii, everything shifted off of me and my music. Suddenly, I was spending more time figuring out what others need and what my role is within my family. I also learned that things I thought were true of myself are bigger than I thought. My way of making mischief - that’s not just me - that’s my whole Polynesian side. I thought I was walking away from music to focus on family, but the two ended up connecting.”
