Montreal-based indie rockers Wolf Parade make their return to Dublin for a gig at the Button Factory on November 20.
The Montreal band's first album in seven years, Cry, Cry, Cry is due out this autumn.
Wolf Parade went on an indefinite hiatus in 2010 after three critically-celebrated albums. This marks the group's first full-length release since their 2016 reunion.
The upcoming album is produced by Pacific Northwest legend John Goodmanson at Robert Lang Studios outside of Seattle, and is accompanied by a renewed focus and the creativity of a band that took their time getting exactly where they needed to be.
The band's members say they can only create the sound they do when working together.
“We don't know who or what is responsible for our sound, it's just something that naturally and consistently comes from this particular combo of musicians,” says Spencer Krug.

“Once we got back together, I was playing guitar, writing and singing in a way that I only do while I'm in Wolf Parade,” says Dan Boeckner, who shares primary lyrical and singing duties with Krug.
The soaring choruses, rousing anthems, sprawling guitars and chaotic keys that make up Wolf Parade are on proud display over the course of the band’s thunderous upcoming release. Check out their single 'Valley Boy' below:
