Ibibio Sound Machine Unleash Afro-House Disco Bangers on New Album 'Chopping Mountain'

UK collective Ibibio Sound Machine have announced new album Chopping Mountain, which will be out September 11 via Merge. This is the first album fully produced by the band's Max Grunhard since 2019's Doko Mien — a stark departure from the outside producers of their previous work. Chopping Mountain includes recent single 'Return to Sender' and new single 'Concept of Love', a joyous afro-house disco banger that showcases the band's signature sound.

Singer Eno Williams reflects on the concept of love as a force that brings beauty back into the world.
