New York, NY (Top40 Charts) "Oh my god,
They Might Be Giants is underrated. That's the best band of all time. Better than the Stones, better than the Beatles, better than Oasis, and better than Crosby,
Stills and Nash." - Open Mike Eagle, Pitchfork "Over/Under"
Why is the world in love again?
They Might Be Giants has announced the release of I Like Fun, a remarkable 15-track album to be released 19th January 2018. The band now announces that their extensive world tour includes 13 European dates, with 6 UK shows including their first at London's prestigious Barbican Centre.
I Like Fun jumps with surprises, vitality, and the startling point of view of these Brooklyn originals. Over a year in the making, songwriters and band founders John Linnell and John Flansburgh draw on themes of dread, death, and disappointment and set them to their driving, hyper-melodic music. The results will leave even the most heavy-hearted among us with a renewed sense of wonder.
Fresh and sonically adventurous, the band's command of the studio and the song is in rare form from beginning to end.
2018 will also see the return of TMBG's Dial-A-Song service, with weekly instalments toll free at www.dialasong.com, and on streaming sites everywhere, featuring new music all year long!
