30 September 2021, 16:37 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Palace have announced their third album Shoals, and have unveiled new single "Lover (Don’t Let Me Down)" to accompany the news.

After returning with "Gravity" last month, Palace have delivered a second new single titled "Lover (Don't Let Me Down)", which is accompanied by a Theo Watkins-directed video and news of their third album Shoals.

Shoals will follow Palace's 2019 second album Life After.

Frontman Leo Wyndham says of the record, "Shoals is a record about confronting our own fears and anxieties. Through the pandemic we were confronted more than ever with ourselves with little distraction, suddenly seeing who we are in the rawest of forms. It held a mirror up to our flaws and imperfections and forced us to see the real 'us'."

He adds, "The record symbolises how our minds can have beautiful yet dangerous depths, like the ocean, and how our fears and thoughts are like shoals of fish that move and shift constantly from place to place; chaotic, often untameable and unpredictable."

Tracklist:

  1. Never Said It Was Easy
  2. Shame On You
  3. Fade
  4. Gravity
  5. Give Me The Rain
  6. Friends Forever
  7. Killer Whale
  8. Lover (Don’t Let Me Down)
  9. Sleeper
  10. Salt
  11. Shoals
  12. Where Sky Becomes Sea
"Lover (Don't Let Me Down)" is out now. Palace's Shoals album will land Fiction on 21 January 2022, and is available to pre-order now.
