Following a mission for fans to discover the album title ( https://digital.umusic.com/cg3 ), all the letters have been uncovered. Most seem to be convinced that it's called Found Heaven, but it seems we won't have official confirmation of that until 31st January. This website claims that it is Found Heaven and it has a release date of 5th April! https://rockserwis.pl/products/241663 )

The album track list isn't confirmed, but should include the singles Never Ending Song, Winner and Killing Me.

Yeah, I've really enjoyed the singles this era so I'm really looking forward to the album. Hopefully some more Max Martin collabs on there!

New single Lonely Dancers out 9th Feb!



His best artwork yet, and the tiny clip of Lonely Dancers sounds promising!

Surprised Joseph has been silent about this so far, but 'Lonely Dancers' is proper amazing! What a chorus wub.gif if this and the other recent singles are anything to go by, the album is shaping up to be potentially one of the albums of the year! Can't wait for it!

Hadn't got round to posting yet but rest assured I have been streaming cool2.gif it's another great song, he uses his voice really interestingly on this one and it's a great follow-up in that regard to Never Ending Song. The album's shaping up so well!

Lonely Dancers is such a tune! I really love the tone he's got in his lower register, it sounds straight out of the 80s and I don't think anyone has sounded like that for quite a while. Also, is anyone else really hearing The Safety Dance in this?

Just been snooping on his store and there's an Alley Rose edition of the vinyl up for pre-order. The artwork is much better than the standard imo, so I think I'll pre-order that wub.gif

1. Found Heaven
2. Never Ending Song
3. Fainted Love
4. Lonely Dancers
5. Alley Rose

Is most of the album written with Max Martin do we know? If so, it's going to be so amazing (although I have a feeling it's gonna be pretty good regardless!)

Not really any information on the album tracks yet, but what's already released is a mix of Max Martin and Greg Kurstin, and Conan himself ofc.

The album is packed full of 80s flavoured bops! cheeseblock.png I’m very happy with it!

It's such a good album, so different for Conan but I love that he really committed to the 80s vibe! Bourgeoisieses, Fainted Love and Eye of the Night are my big faves at this early stage *.*

This is a solid album! I'm really impressed. Where are we expecting it to chart? Does it have a chance of top 10, do we think?

Hard to call, but he's done surprisingly well with his previous two albums - both seem to have a long streaming tail as they're certified silver despite 1 and 3 weeks top 100 respectively (especially impressive for Kid Krow having peaked at #30! Superache got to #8). He's already done signings for the album (well, signed artcards but alongside album pre-orders) and a Banquet Records show so the work's been put in - hopefully it pays off with another top 10 album!

That would probably be enough for top 10 on an ordinary week I'm guessing, but there's Vampire Weekend, J. Cole, The Libertines and maybe Benson Boone who are presumably all going to be ahead of him and pushing him down a few spots.

A few months back somebody played me the video of his where he's in the supermarket, which one was that?

I really, really liked it! If the album's as good as that I might check it out.

Yeah Never Ending Song is great but Lonely Dancers is absolutely the best thing he's done IMO, it's an early contender for one of my songs of the year!
