Bright Eyes have a new album on the way: Five Dice, All Threes will arrive on September 20 via Dead Oceans. The band’s 10th studio album and first since 2020’s Down in the Weeds, Where the World Once Was features guest appearances from Cat Power, the National’s Matt Berninger, and the So So Glos’ Alex Orange Drink. To accompany the news, they’ve shared the first single, ‘Bells and Whistles’, alongside a video directed by Josh Boone and filmed in Omaha, Nebraska. Check it out below, and scroll down for the album cover, tracklist, and the band’s just-announced UK and European tour dates.
Speaking about the new track, Conor Oberst said in a statement: “This is a song about the many little details in life that can seem insignificant or frivolous or temporary at the time but eventually end up forming your destiny. And it’s also kind of a whistle while you work scenario.”
