Muna<\/a> are back with their first new album in four years. Dancing on the Wall<\/em><\/a>, the indie pop trio\u2019s fourth studio LP to date, is out May 8 via Saddest Factory\/Secretly Group. Muna are all-in on the album\u2019s theme\u2014emotional risk and the power of collective release\u2014as caught in their anthemic music video for the lead single, \u201cDancing on the Wall,\u201d which you can watch below.<\/p>\n In a statement about the title track, Muna called it \u201cpossibly our favorite song\u201d they\u2019ve made as a band. \u201cWe think it\u2019s all the best parts of MUNA – it\u2019s coming from a really emotional and lonely place, but the song itself makes us feel powerful and euphoric,\u201d they wrote. \u201cIt\u2019s written in the moment that the clock strikes midnight at the ball, and you have to give up the fantasy. In this case, it\u2019s the fantasy of loving someone or something that can\u2019t love you back.\u201d<\/p>\n Dancing on the Wall<\/em> was produced by Naomi McPherson and follows Muna\u2019s self-titled album<\/a> from 2022. The record is described in a press release as balancing opposing ideas, such as propulsion and introspection or euphoria and unease, while ultimately \u201cinviting listeners onto the dancefloor while keeping its inner world deliberately unresolved.\u201d<\/p>\n
