The Swedish pop duo Icona Pop have detailed their debut album. This Is... Icona Pop is out September 24 via Record Company Ten/Big Beat. It includes their Charli XCX-featuring ultra-hit "I Love It", plus their new single "All Night" (below).

They've also just announced a string of North American tour dates, which surround their already announced dates at Lollapalooza, Laneway Detroit, Osheaga, and Bumbershoot.

[Shaun]

oh god this is perfect ok *\bates*

[Tom4784]

This isn't bad but haven't they already released an album?

[Patrick]

Won't get very far - will easily be nothing more than a one hit wonder. :idc:

[Shaun]

This isn't bad but haven't they already released an album?

they did in Sweden last year but I don't think they intend to release it anywhere else

[Joelle.]

Oh this is confusing I didn't realise I Love It was from their last album /mess :laugh:

Strange that it got to number 1 here just when they were releasing new stuff though

[Shaun]

Slowly climbing the charts in the US, currently at #31 on iTunes there :love: I don't think it's been released here yet (so here's looking to a 2015 release!!!!)

[Joelle.]

This song is spectacular though :love:

So I don't really know anything about them as a band... I've heard of Charli XCX before, is she/he a singer? Assuming she... and that she was one of the singers on I Love It... in which case, what is Icona Pop? It says duo, and the album art has two singers, is Charli XCX part of Icona Pop or is Icona Pop two women? If it's two women then why does I Love It only sound like it has two female singers on it? Or is Charli XCX a guy and that's why there are only two singers and in which case is Charli XCX a DJ? Or is one of Icona Pop a DJ? I don't understand.

[Shaun]

there's wikipedia for such questions greg

[Z]

I don't care that much I was rather hoping someone who cared could tell me instead
