Arcade Fire tease Infinite Content, new single "Everything Now" coming tomorrow
Arcade Fire have certainly stoked the rumour bonfires this week, with last-minute live dates, posters, teaser trailers, and revamped social accounts among the things sending fans into a frenzy.
UPDATE 2: Here's "Everything Now" from the new 12" on sale at Primavera. Is that the crowd sample from last year we can hear?

Original post: If the hearsay is to be believed - and it certainly seems believable - we're all getting new single "Everything Now" tomorrow, 1 June. If it does arrive, it'll be their first new music since standalone Mavis Staples collab "I Give You Power" which was released to coincide with US President Donald Trump inauguration.
Posters teasing the release have popped up across London, and various imagery has emerged online, as generally-pretty-on-the-money fan account ArcadeFireTube points out. Read more about the whole situation.

Now, on top of all this, the band have shared some new artwork and told us to "stay tuned for Infinite Content" - it looks like an album title and artwork to us...

The band's Reflektor follow up has been in the works a while, and was reportedly near the final stages earlier this year (although a supposed April release date came and went with nary a peep).
