Keane have announced their fourth studio album, ‘Strangeland’, will be released on May 7th 2012.The Battle based band will release the album, which has been produced by The Vaccines and Howling Bells producer Dan Grech-Marguerat, on May 7. Tim Rice-Oxley said about the album: “‘Strangeland’ feels like an adventure that brings with it different things for different people, and like any adventure is full of uncertainty, and the potential for mishap, as well as the possibility of amazing things and glorious discoveries. I love the idea of the journey through ‘Strangeland’ being a journey of redemption.”
The band will tour in support of ‘Strangeland’ in May beginning with Newcastle’s O2 Academy on May 23 and ending on June 8 when Keane will headline London’s O2 Academy Brixton. Preceding those are two sold out homecoming shows at De La Warr Pavillion in Bexhill on the 9th and 10th of March.
