Sparks have announced a new EP – their first-ever EP, in fact – that serves as a companion to their 28th studio album, MAD!. Out October 3, it’s aptly titled MADDER!, and it’s led by the the propulsive new single ‘Porcupine’, “a song about a guy’s fascination with a woman who possesses a prickly personality,” according to a press release. Check it out below.
“Not wanting the Mad!ness to end and buoyed by the phenomenal reaction to MAD!, we made a hasty but intense retreat to the studio to record a Sparks first: an EP,” the band said of the new project. “MADDER!, a four-song companion piece to the album, is for everyone who isn’t yet MAD! enough. We hope these new songs will take you to an even MADDER! place.”
