Icona Pop have announced their second album.
'Club Romantech' will arrive through Ultra Records/Iconic Sound Recordings/Ten Music Group on September 1, marking the Swedish electro-pop duo's first full-length release since 2013's 'This Is... Icona Pop'.
Alongside the news, the pair have shared the energetic new track Where Do We Go From Here, which deals in infectious beats and catchy hooks. Of the new song, Aino Jawo and Caroline Hjelt said:
"It was one of the first songs we wrote in the fall of 2020 after realizing we couldn’t move back to LA because of the pandemic. Back in Stockholm, we formed a small crew to start making music and thought ‘what the fuck are we going to do now?’ Eclectic, fun, hard, pop, deep, mainstream, catchy, weird, late at night, early in the morning - always with a tear in the corner of the eye and a smile on our face. That's how Where Do We Go From Here feels and that's how CLUB ROMANTECH feels too."
It follows the record's previously released singles; Feels In My Body, Spa, Off Of My Mind, You're Free, I Want You, Faster and Shit We Do For Love.
Discussing the album, Hjelt added: "As Icona Pop, we can release a pop tune or a super hard dance song, and that’s who we are. When we started to write this album, we didn’t have any rules. We just had a vision we wanted to share with our fans. We’re inviting them into our world."
"We put all of our problems and stress into what we’re doing," Aino continued. "We love disguising our heartbreaks and sadness in uplifting songs you can dance to. It was a very emotional process, and it’s all in the music."
