Two Door Cinema Club have announced details of their second album 'Beacon', which will be released on September 3.

'Beacon', which is the follow up to 2010's 'Tourist History', was recorded in LA in April with producer Jacknife Lee (Bloc Party, U2, REM) in his home studios.

Speaking about the new album, singer Alex Trimble said: "'Beacon' is a much more intimate record than our first, but at the same time, it's much bigger and more inclusive. Trying to find that balance has been our goal for a long time and this record takes us one step closer to the band we've dreamt of becoming". He added:

Working with Jacknife Lee was a joy and a pleasure. He shared our goals and played a huge part in putting the pieces together in the right way. This is an exciting time for us and we can't wait to share the songs with everyone.


The tracklisting for 'Beacon' is as follows:

'Next Year'
'Handshake'
'Wake Up'
'Sun'
'Someday'
'Sleep Alone'
'The World Is Watching (with Valentina)'
'Settle'
'Spring'
'Pyramid'
'Beacon'

I'll give it a listen. Wasn't overly impressed with their debut album but it did have a handful of good songs on it that have stood the test of time.

Not very keen on the new album. Their first album was definitely better.

I like the first half of Beacon, but everytime I listen to it I always find myself getting a bit bored by the time it reaches 'The World is Watching' and once that one is finished I usually just put something else on. Generally I think it's a decent album, just not as amazing as Tourist History was which is a shame but oh well.
