Brockhampton Announce New Album 'Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine'

BY Brock ThiessenPublished Mar 26, 2021

Just the other day, Brockhampton delivered their new single "Buzzcut" with Danny Brown. Now the hip-hop collective have revealed they are giving us a whole new album.

The record is called Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine, and it will arrive on April 9 via Question Everything/RCA Records.

The album follows the group's Ginger, which came out back in 2019.

A press release explains the following:

Over the following year, the members of the group found themselves further removed from each other than they had been since moving to Los Angeles together in 2016, each grappling with the weight of isolation, identity and unexpected personal loss. As fate would have it, the headwinds of 2020 served as a potent reminder of the strength of friendship. The album's tone reflects the highs and lows of the period from which it was born — both tragic and celebratory, built around the recurring theme of finding "the light" in your life. As such, Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine is equal parts braggadocio and empathy — the once young, wide-eyed boyband returns more self aware and self assured than ever before.

So far, the tracklist for the album has yet to be revealed, but Brockhampton will celebrate the album with a livestreamed release show on April 9. You can get tickets for that now over here.
