El VY | The New Project by Matt Berninger and Brent Knopf

Matt Berninger of The National and Brent Knopf of Menomena and Ramona Falls, have teamed up for a new project by the name of EL VY (pronounced "El Vye"...or as a press releases states, "pronounced like the plural of Elvis" -- Incredible).

Yesterday, they released the title track off the upcoming album album, Return to the Moon, due out October 30th. The track features Berninger's signature melancholy vocals atop uptempo, electro-rock instrumentation that establishes a refreshing sound quite different from The National.

The album's track listing will be as follows:

01 | Return to the Moon (Political Song for Didi Bloome to Sing, With Crescendo)
02 | I'm the Man to Be
03 | Paul Is Alive
04 | Need A Friend
05 | Silent Ivy Hotel 
06 | No Time to Crank the Sun
07 | It's a Game
08 | Sleepin' Light (ft. Ural Thomas)
09 | Sad Case
10 | Happiness, Missouri
11 | Careless

The band also plans to tour after the release. For more on EL VY and their upcoming tour dates, head on over to their website, elvy.co.
