Arcade Fire present Pink Elephant, their seventh studio album, which will be released tomorrow, May 9, 2025. The album includes their first single ‘Year of the Snake’, the title track ‘Pink Elephant’, and new original songs.
Pink Elephant, their new album, consists of 10 tracks of cinematic mystical punk and runs for 42 minutes. It was produced by Win Butler, Régine Chassagne, and Daniel Lanois, and recorded at Win and Régine's Good News Recording Studio in New Orleans. The term “pink elephant” refers to that paradoxical effect in which the effort to suppress a thought leads to it being impossible to avoid it.
When listened to in its entirety, Pink Elephant invites the listener on a sonic odyssey, a quest for life that exists within the individual's perception, a meditation on darkness and light, and inner beauty. The layers of this condensed epic unfold to reveal new dimensions with each listen.
