U.K. electronic act Underworld will release its long-awaited fifth studio album “Oblivion with Bells” on Oct. 15 via London-based label-development firm Integral and pan-European indie label PIAS.
Issuing the album on their in-house label underworldlive.com, the duo has opted to work with Integral and distributor Vital Distribution for wider U.K. and international sales on CD and digital platforms.
Integral will also promote “Crocodile,” the album’s first U.K. single, on Oct. 1.
Additionally, Brussels-based PIAS, which co-owns Integral with Vital, will distribute the album in Continental Europe and via its affiliates through rest of the world, apart from the United States and Japan.
Underworld’s album will be out on Traffic in Japan, and with Side One Recordings in the U.S.
Underworld, comprising Karl Hyde and Rick Smith, embarks on an international tour, starting with the U.S. from Sept. 7-15, including gigs at L.A.’s Hollywood Bowl and Bank of America Pavilion in Boston. A U.K. and European tour follows during Oct. 8 to Nov. 10.
