Duran Duran will be releasing their new album "Paper Gods" via Warner Brothers Records on September 18th 2015. "Paper Gods" will be the band's 14th album to date and it was recorded in London and a handful of collaborators have come in to put their guest spot upon it.
According to a press release, Paper Gods aims to “capture the duality and sense of conflict at the heart of Duran Duran’s music.” Bassist John Taylor elaborated, saying, “It really goes back to that strange early Duran mix: the hard-edged pop, coexisting with this dark, weird, experimental side.”
Keyboardist Nick Rhodes added, “That’s something that’s essential to all of us. It’s great to be able to lift people’s spirits — and your own — with a strong shot of pure pop, but the world we live in isn’t all just made of that stuff, so it seems natural to me that we have kept one foot in the darker, more Gothic side of life.”
They went on to release a new song and single for "Pressure Off". Check it out HERE.
Duran Duran has lined up new North American and European tour dates, including festival gigs and shows with Rodgers and Chic.
