It is a record that is the sound of a band growing as songwriters and storytellers. The album was created after a period of rest for the band following their seismic world tour in support of previous record RELAXER which saw them perform a global sold out tour including shows at The Hollywood Bowl and the O2 (they had played Madison Square Garden for the previous album This Is All Yours). The Dream is an album of intrigue, beauty, and humanity - a coalescence of everything that has made alt-J a global band with true staying power. The band's dazzling instrumentation has matured there are still far-out moments, but now they are deployed with artful precision. Both beauty and darkness lay side-by-side - often seamlessly merging on the same track, a purposeful choice that pays dividends across the record. The Dream is an album where true-crime-inspired stories and tales of Hollywood and the Chateau Marmont rub shoulders with some of the band's more personal moments to date. It's an evocative video that recalls summer memories and was inspired by Newman's experiences at a festival in Melbourne. 'U&ME' is produced by long-time collaborator Charlie Andrew and is the band's first new music since their acclaimed third album RELAXER, released in 2017.ĭirected by band member Gus Unger-Hamilton's brother, Prosper Unger-Hamilton, the video for 'U&ME' is the first to feature the full band. The band's revelatory new single 'U&ME' is out now and accompanied by a music video: the first video to ever feature the full band.

The Mercury Prize-winning, multiple GRAMMY- and BRIT Award-nominated band alt-J have announced their eagerly-awaited fourth album The Dream, set for release February 11, 2022, via Canvasback / Infectious Music.
