It's going to be called The Terror and will be out in April...

The Flaming Lips have announced their new album will be called The Terror and it's coming out on April 1.

Wayne Coyne says their tenth studio album's got "a darker-hued spectrum than previous works along with a more inward-looking lyrical perspective".

The frontman explains more, "Why would we make this music that is The Terror - this bleak, disturbing record? I don't really want to know the answer that I think is coming. Maybe this is the beginning of the answer."

Track listing:

Look... The Sun Is Rising
Be Free, A Way
Try To Explain
You Lust
The Terror
You Are Alone
Butterfly, How Long It Takes To Die
Turning Violent
Always There... In Our Hearts

Non-Album, Bonus Track - digital ONLY:
Sun Blows Up Today


The US band are playing two dates at Camden Roundhouse in north London in May.
