Last summer, we heard a few promising live previews of new material from Baltimore’s Beach House, and now it looks like fresh tunes are set to arrive in studio form just one year later: Bloom is the title, May 15 is the release date, according to details uncovered by Exclaim this week. While the story’s link has since gone dead and Sub Pop would not deny or confirm the info, the tracklist and expected release date do seem reasonably legit — especially given last month’s unintended revelation that some sessions for the set were completed at NYC’s Electric Lady Studios.
Either way, we can’t wait, so join us in getting psyched today via the rumored tracklist and a live take on one new cut below. Update: The opening track is here and tracklist/release date is confirmed.
