Earlier this month, Modest Mouse announced their seventh studio album, The Golden Casket, and on Monday (May 24), the indie-rockers shared its second single, "Leave A Light On."
According to a press release, the song "finds [frontman Isaac] Brock navigating the existential threat of losing our humanity - and the interconnectedness that come with it - amidst a constant societal barrage of physical and digital materialism."
The Golden Casket is slated for a June 25 release via Epic Records and will be Modest Mouse's first album in six years.
"Leave A Light On" follows lead single "We Are Between." Listen to it above.
In addition to the new song, Modest Mouse also announced 2021 tour dates. The trek begins at Lollapalooza and ends in Asheville, North Carolina in October. Future Islands are set to open on select stops. Check out the full list of dates below.
