Broken Social Scene announce first new album in nine years, Remember the Humans

Broken Social Scene are back. The Canadian indie collective have returned with their first new album in nine years. On May 8, they’ll release Remember the Humans via City Slang. The first single is “Remember the Humans.” Hear it below.

“There’s a different kind of honesty in this record,” said the group’s Charles Spearin in a statement. “[W]e’ve had success, we’ve lost friends, we’ve lost parents, we’re at this ‘what happens next?’ stage in life.”

The band are also heading out on tour with Stars and Metric, whose members have collaborated with Broken Social Scene in the past. Check out those dates below.

Broken Social Scene’s last album was 2017’s Hug of Thunder. Their 2002 album You Forgot It In People is featured on our list of our 150 Favorite Indie Rock Albums of the 21st Century.
