Wolf Parade kan i dag annoncere udgivelsen af albummet Thin Mind, som udkommer den 24. januar 2020 på Sub Pop / Playground Music i Norden.
Bandets multi-instrumentalist Dante DeCaro valgte at forlade gruppen tilbage i 2018, og derfor markerer Thin Mind også den originale trios tilbagevenden, med Dan Boeckner, Spencer Krug, og Arlen Thompson.

Det kommende album Thin Mind er et udtryk der henviser til det, at være omkring for meget teknologi, som gør ens fokus 'tyndt'. Dét at man lige skal åbne en side til, se én ting mere - noget der er blevet en tom automatik. Albummet omhandler de problemer der opstår, når man, hvert øjeblik foran skærmen, bliver overmættet med indhold og nyheder. En tendens der stadigvæk tager fart og påvirker vores nedadgående opmærksomhedsspænd. Det er blevet en udfordring at være i nuet, være til stede og have troen på en klar og bæredygtig fremtid.
"This record is very personal, but at the same time, we’re all coming from the same place of a general sense of anxiety,” siger trommeslager Thompson. “How do you deal with the constant barrage of having your opinions swayed by all these different actors when you don’t know who they are or what their purpose is? There is no normal anymore."
Men albummet har også et positivt element, fortæller guitarrist Boeckner:
"If you’re in that liminal, very modern psychological state in nature. At best, you become an incredibly powerful being for interpreting and processing information at a speed that our parents and grandparents couldn’t possibly comprehend. In the cognitive dissonance where we made this record, there was no escape.”
I forbindelse med nyheden om deres kommende, femte album, deler bandet sangen ‘Forest Green’ med den tilhørende lyrikvideo, som kan ses herunder. 'Forest Green' er andet lyt fra det kommende album, hvor vi tidligere har kunnet høre singlen 'Against The Day.'
