Yeah Yeah Yeahs have announced the release of their first new album in nine years, Cool It Down, which will be out on September 30 via Secretly Canadian. They have also shared a video for the album’s lead single, the Perfume Genius collaboration “Spitting Off the Edge of the World.” View the Cody Critcheloe-directed video below, along with the album’s tracklist and cover art.

Karen O states in a press release: “To all who have waited, our dear fans, thank you, our fever to tell has returned, and writing these songs came with its fair share of chills, tears, and euphoria when the pain lifts and truth is revealed. Don’t have to tell you how much we’ve been going through in the last nine years since our last record, because you’ve been going through it too, and we love you and we see you, and we hope you feel the feels from the music we’ve made. No shying away from the feels, or backing down from what’s been gripping all of us these days. So yes, we’ve taken our time, happy to report when it’s ready it really does just flow out.”
