I'm pretty sure there was a thread for this already, but I was unable to locate it. Either way, the first single is due to premiere on Radio 1 next week. Per their Facebook and Twitter. This is one of my most expected releases this year. Settle was a very strong piece of work and holds up very well. |

YES! I'm pretty sure there was a thread for this already, buy I was unable to locate this. Actually, no. The only thread from them (here) is for Settle, but there's one on the CHR/Pop forum and another one for this in mention on the World Hits forum. I guess you're confusing with the former. Either way, the first single is due to premiere on Radio 1 next week. Per their Facebook and Twitter. It's going to be premiered as Annie Mac's Hottest Record this Tuesday. |

Their site, which previously had a countdown (to tomorrow, I think), now has a teaser video (with the drawing of a wild cat) for a Monday announcement. Combine that with the URL used for the countdown earlier, /splash-caracal-reveal-us, and it wouldn't surprise me if the new album is titled Caracal, after a type of wild cat. They also confirmed a collaboration with Lion Babe on Twitter.

Oh! Caracal sounds interesting. Their site, which previously had a countdown (to tomorrow, I think), now has a teaser video (with the drawing of a wild cat) for a Monday announcement. Is it a wild cat? I thought it was a lion  As a side note, the countdown is still on their website, unless I am missing something and it indeed ends today at 6pm. EST / tomorrow at 12am GMT. That said, if it's considered that the latter is the time when it's uploaded new releases on iTunes in Europe (mainly the UK), I guess the announcement could be the link for their album as a pre-order with the Lion Babe track as an instant grat. |

From Pitchfork: And Howard Lawrence mentioned the following about the album title: "A caracal is an incredible wild cat that I became fascinated with while on tour last year; I just love the way they look, their physical capabilities and their anonymity. It felt like a perfect fit for our Wild Life brand too, so the caracal made perfect sense as the lead visual for the new album and over the course of recording, it also felt like a natural title for the new record too." Also, he told that the caracal was his spirit animal on 97.1 AMP Radio almost a year ago. |

The album is available for pre-order in the UK and there are two versions of the album: Standard and Deluxe. The former has 11 tracks, while the latter has 15 tracks. The tracklist isn't revealed yet, but besides "Holding On", the songs "Omen", "Hourglass" and "Jaded" with their respective lengths appear too, so they are likely to be instant grats at some point.
Also, the countdown has been delayed and it ends tomorrow at 4am. EST / 10am. GMT now.

I like the album title and love the cover. I applaud them for collaborating with new or breaking artists when literally any A-lister would happily jump on this now. Wise tactic to ensure the media will treat this as a Disclosure project instead of the all star compilation it could have been, but still one or two big names would be nice. I want them to get another radio smash!

I like the title and cover, but I still can't get into Holding On. It did work better live when they did it this weekend at Wild Life though.

"Jaded" sounds like it's going to be great. Howard's vocals are better than expected! I already like it more than "Holdin' On."

Oh! Another song with Sam Smith? I don't mind if this track is released as their first US single because I don't think "Holding On" has any chances to be pushed there in my opinion. However, if this happens, the US people who aren't into Disclosure could think that they only work with him  |

So does that mean "Bang That" isn't on the album? Because, forgive the pun, but that song is a banger.
Generally though, I like the idea that the album is song/pop focused. But songs like "Grab Her" and "When A Fire Stars To Burn" were great inclusions on Settle.

"Holding On" (Music Video)
According to their e-mail newsletter, the music video of "Holding On" is the first of four videos directed by Ryan Hope that come together to create a short film, which is titled as the album. That said, they already unveiled a teaser of "Omen", which I guess it will be the second one and if it's considered that "Hourglass" and "Jaded" are the only titles revealed on the pre-order plus the aforementioned, I assume these tracks will complete the series of videos.

Some of the title tracks have been unveiled on iTunes, confirming their collaborations with Lion Babe ("Hourglass"), Kwabs ("Willing & Able") and Nao ("Superego"). That said, tracks #1, #6, #8, #10 and #11 in the standard version and tracks #12, #13 and #15 in the deluxe one aren't revealed yet. So does that mean "Bang That" isn't on the album? Because, forgive the pun, but that song is a banger. No. "Bang That" made the cut and it's the track #14 in the deluxe version. |

I can't wait for the Lion Babe collabo! I wonder if the production will be with Lucas Goodman.

I love "Bang That" but have been a bit underwhelmed by "Holding On" and "Omen." Great tracklist though, can't wait to hear some of these collaborations.

Disclosure revealed another instant grat from Caracal and it's "Hourglass", the track which features Lion Babe. • Listen to it on their YouTube/VEVO channel here. Also, they uploaded an exclusive album mini mix on Spotify, which includes ~30 seconds snippets of all the songs from the album, with the exception of "Bang That". Anyway, their collaboration with Lorde, "Magnets", sounds great, as well as "Jaded" and "Echoes". Can't wait to listen to the full version of those ones. Moreover, according to their e-mail newsletter, more music is coming next week, so I'm wondering if it would be another instant grat or the announcement of their third single. |

"Hourglass" is my favorite so far. Haven't been over the moon about these though. Excited for the high-profile collaborations.
