X Ambassadors' full-length debut is titled VHS and will be released June 23. No word yet on a tracklist, but there's a good chance it'll include their hit with Jamie N Commons, "Jungle," and new single "Renegades."
They also co-wrote upcoming Rihanna song "American Oxygen" with Alex Da Kid (XA is signed to his KIDinaKORNER Records along with Interscope).

So excited. I really hope that "Unconsolable" is on the album and gets a real single push on CHR at some point. These guys are probably my favorite band of the past couple years.

"Gorgeous", "Nervous", and "Naked" are great, along with the previously released songs. Definitely need to check this out.
ETA: Listened and I thought it was pretty good. The ones that I mentioned are definitely the highlights of the album, but almost every track was good. "Fear" is god awful though, and the interludes just seem like filler despite them going with the title of the album. They're pretty much the lite version of Imagine Dragons, as there pretty much one in the same, but ID does it better. I've fallen in love with "Gorgeous" though.

This album is pretty good. My favorites are "Unsteady," "Hang On," "Gorgeous," "Fear" and "Naked." I could definitely see them blowing up in a few months like Imagine Dragons did.
