YUNGBLUD has announced details of his new album, Idols II.

The highly-anticipated second instalment of last year’s mega Idols LP is arriving this Friday, February 20 via Island Records/Locomotion, and consists of six new tracks – I Need You (To Make The World Seem Fine), The Postman, Time, War Part II, Blueberry Hill and Suburban Requiem – on top of Dom’s awesome reworking of Zombie with The Smashing Pumpkins.

“This is it,” he announces. “The second chapter of the Idols story. Part one was a journey that helped me reclaim my identity from the darkest position I’ve ever been in my life.

“Part two is about realising that I am alive, that I am real, that this journey that I’ve been on didn’t kill me. It’s about realising that you can feel invincible when you actually feel yourself. It’s about comprehending that my heart is beating and that my lungs are filling up with air.”
