It’s been a long time coming, what with the release of raucous singles like “Primadonna Like Me” and “Body Talks”, but The Struts have finally announced their new album. Titled Young & Dangerous, it follows the glam-rock outfit’s 2016 breakthrough, Everybody Wants. It lands on October 26th via Polydor Records.
“Finally we can reveal our second album, Young & Dangerous,” frontman Luke Spiller says in a press release. “We have poured our blood, sweat and tears into this album and I know you are all going to love it. This is dedicated to all of our amazing fans who have waited so long for this record. I hope these songs provide the perfect soundtrack to this crazy thing called life. Thank you once again. Be sure to get tickets to our tour so we can all sing these new songs together.”
Accompanying the announcement is a new single, “Bulletproof Baby”, an encore closer if there ever was one. Brimming with gang vocals and a chorus that reaches into the rafters, the song’s still wistful enough to leave a lasting impression. Hear it below.
The Struts will soon embark on a massive headlining tour in support of the album, and they’ve just added a batch of European dates for early next year. Check them out below, and grab tickets here.
