Disclosure Announce 'Caracal' Album

BY Alex HudsonPublished Jun 7, 2015

As of late, English dance brothers Disclosure have rolled out a couple of singles with the promise that a sophomore full-length would be close behind. Sure enough, we've now got the information surrounding their upcoming LP.

The album is called Caracal, and it's set to arrive on shelves on September 25 through PMR/Island. Disclosure announced the news at the end of their Wild Life Festival this weekend in Brighton, UK.

The band's Howard Lawrence said in a statement, "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."

The album includes the Gregory Porter-assisted single "Holding On." Other guests include Nao, Lion Babe and Kwabs, while Howard Lawrence sings a tune called "Jaded" himself. There's no word as to whether "Bang That" will be included.

That's the artwork above. Below, check out a trailer for Caracal along with "Holding On." As of press time, Disclosure's website features a countdown clock that's ticking down to a time in the early hours of Monday morning (June 8).

UPDATE: You can hear the new track "Hourglass" featuring Lion Babe captured live at this weekend's Parklife festival at the bottom of the page.
