## Summary

Gang Of Youths have announced Compañero, their first album in five years, due out in March. The announcement follows the band’s return in August with “Things Take Time” and matters as they prepare to play Coachella next year.

The 11-track album is described by the band as preoccupied with mortality, though it grew from a relatively peaceful period in their lives. A second single, “Benny’s Video”, named after Michael Haneke’s 1992 film, is a fast-paced, synth-led track. The band will tour North America in March and April, with two Coachella dates in Indio.
