Paul McCartney Announces First New Album in 5 Years: Egypt Station

Paul McCartney has announced his first new album in five years.

With the album's announcement came the release of the album's first single, a double A-side featuring the songs "I Don't Know" and "Come On to Me."

In a statement, McCartney said, “I liked the words ‘Egypt Station.’ It reminded me of the ‘album’ albums we used to make.” He continued, “Egypt Station starts off at the station on the first song and then each song is like a different station. So it gave us some idea to base all the songs around that. I think of it as a dream location that the music emanates from.”

'Egypt Station' is set to be released on September 7th.
