‘Pink Elephant’ is the first full-length collection of new Arcade Fire music since 2022s ‘WE’. The album title refers to that paradoxical effect where the effort to suppress a thought leads to it being impossible to avoid.

In the coming days Arcade Fire will announce special gigs in select cities where the band will perform Pink Elephant in its entirety prior to its release. Fans should stay tuned to the band’s socials for more information on these intimate performances.

‘Pink Elephant’ will be available in multiple formats – PRE-ORDER HERE:
