Bleachers have returned with fellow New Jerseyan Bruce Springsteen for the new single “Chinatown.”
Directed by Carlotta Kohl, the video for the song features Antonoff wearing a shirt that says “Welcome to New Jersey, now go home.” Springsteen appears near the three-minute mark as the duo ride off in a Cadillac down the highway. “I wanna find tomorrow/Yeah I wanna find tomorrow with you baby,” they sing in unison.
In addition, the band also dropped the single “45.” Both songs will be included on an upcoming album slated for 2021.
“‘Chinatown’ starts in NYC and travels to New Jersey,” Antonoff said in a statement. “That pull back to the place I am from mixed with terror of falling in love again. Having to show your cards to someone and the shock when you see them for yourself. Thinking you know yourself and where you are from ….having to see yourself through somebody who you want to stay.”
“I started to write this song with these ideas ringing in my head,” he continued. “To further understand who you are pushes you to further understand where you are from and what that looks and sounds like. There are pieces in that that are worth carrying forever and pieces worth letting die. ‘Chinatown’ and ’45’ are both the story of this — ‘Chinatown’ through someone else, ’45’ through the mirror. As for Bruce, it’s the honor of a lifetime to be joined by him. He is the artist who showed me that the sound of the place I am from has value and that there is a spirit here that needs to be taken all over the world.”
Bleachers’ new album follows 2017’s Gone Now. Antonoff has spent the last few years as a producer, contributing to Taylor Swift’s Folklore and the Chicks’ Gaslighter. He produced Lana Del Rey’s Norman Fucking Rockwell! as well as her upcoming LP Chemtrails Over the Country Club.

自从公布了新裤子乐队新专辑制作接近尾声的新闻后，唱片公司就天天能够接到乐迷打来的询问电话询问专辑上市情况，其间更有甚者传出了已经在音像店看到专辑的谣言，摩登天空正式宣布新裤子的最新专辑《龙虎人丹》在 10 月 1 日正式上市。百变音乐顽童新裤子乐队这次历时 4 年精心配制的音乐神药《龙虎人丹》的推出，其药效的奇特强劲将再次颠覆流行乐坛！

新裤子乐队一直追求的时髦音乐理念在这张最新的专辑《龙虎人丹》中仍然得以继续，而且有过之而无不及。不论是封面的设计、 MV 的拍摄、人物的造型还是音乐的内容，可以说都被新裤子乐队做到了极致。特别值得一提的是这张专辑的封面一改新裤子乐队往日漫画、黏土动画或者铁皮玩具的形象，乐队三个成员头一次在封面上露了脸，他们时髦的装束和北京市井草根文化的混搭、复古醒目的封面设计特别具有冲击力，令人在众多的唱片中一眼相中！



《龙虎人丹》这张新专辑收录了新裤子潜心研制的十支“音乐良药”，流畅的旋律、浪漫超现实的 NEW WAVE 音乐、中国传统的旋律小调被拿来作为歌曲配乐上的“药引”， 非常出色！在《 Bye Bye Disco 》、《你是我的明星》、《龙虎人丹》等歌曲中，混搭音乐的玩法需要有更综合、更到位的审美素质能力，能拿捏到位的非新裤子乐队莫属！这样的“无疆域”音乐制作玩法才是真正国际化的创作态度。
