New Alt-J Dates Are All Yours

Your favorite band named after a Mac computer command certainly knows how to start a work week off on a good note. Alt-J announced a release date for its sophomore album today, along with dates in Europe and North America.

This Is All Yours is due out Sept. 22 via Canvasback/Infectious Music as the follow-up to 2012’s acclaimed An Awesome Wave. The English indie rock band’s debut won the Mercury Music Prize in 2012 and was nominated for three Brit Awards in 2013. The LP is also well liked on this side of the Atlantic, from being named Bob Boilen of NPR’s Album of the Year to being included on the top 10 lists of critics including The Wall Street Journal.
