Paul McCartney makes another return with news of his first album in five years, Egypt Station. The legendary musician also shared new tracks, "I Don't Know" and "Come On To Me".

It's been five years since Paul McCartney released New, and today the rock icon revealed the first two singles from his forthcoming album.

McCartney's music has become a staple in modern times; new album Egypt Station will be his 17th solo release, and will be 14 tracks long.

Speaking about his upcoming album, McCartney explained, "I liked the words ‘Egypt Station.’ It reminded me of the ‘album’ albums we used to make.., Egypt Station starts off at the station on the first song and then each song is like a different station. So it gave us some idea to base all the songs around that. I think of it as a dream location that the music emanates from.”
