When Death Grips signed to Epic early this year, they promised they'd deliver two albums before the end of 2012. First we got the excellent The Money Store. And now, the band has announced a new album due out this fall via Epic and Columbia ("most likely" in late October), NO LOVE DEEP WEB.
Here's what the band had to say about the album in a statement:

the album is titled NO LOVE DEEP WEB
we are working on 20 tracks and looking to narrow down to 13.
it will be released by epic records in the us and columbia in the uk.
the release is scheduled for fall 2012. most likely late october.
we are in correspondence with Crispin Glover and working toward a video collaboration with him relating to this album.
we've been recording the album primarily in sacramento , ca. and oakland , ca. for the past five months.
we will be mixing it in shanghai , china.
there are no manually programmed drums on this album ,
the beats are being played live on a roland electronic v-drum set or acoustic drum set by zach.
there are no features , guest collabs or outside producers.
the material is cold , bass heavy , minimal , rock & roll influenced and could simultaneously fit into a rave or dance club context.
it is essentially rap and electronic music while at times extremely aggressive.
we plan on supporting this release live internationally.

*the track that comes out sept.10 as part of the adult swim series is a previously unreleased track from the Money Store and is totally unrelated to the new album NO LOVE DEEP WEB.
NO LOVE DEEP WEB is another sound and vibe entirely.

Another contender for AOTY.

Stoked for this. If it's half as good as The Money Store, it will still be top 10 for the year.

I'm looking forward to this. Mainly because they'll finally tour once this is released.

Apparently there is some insane marketing campaign for this album that was uncovered by some people on 4chan with too much time on there hands. It seems Death Grips has been putting clues pertaining to the new album in twitter post and photos. The whole thing was really hard to follow but from what I gathered someone enhanced DG's facebook/twitter photo and found a message in braille. It was decoded into a URL that led to a series of cryptic messages and links to sketchy websites with mp3 files that contain nothing but high pitched noises. The only real information that seems to have come out of this whole thing is that the album is coming out October 23rd.

Death Grips would do that and /mu/ would figure it out.

Death Grips are supposedly leaking the album in defiance of their record label who said they couldn't release it til next year. They're supposed to make a move within the next 2 hours. If this shit lives up to the hype it's gonna be AOTY without a doubt.
