The Rapture Promise 'The Best Album Of The Century'

The Rapture claim that their new album will be ‘stupendous’ and ‘the best album of the century.’

The band are currently recording the album at an undisclosed location on the isle of Manhattan and are excited about the new material.

They’ve also drafted in some heavyweight producers for the work – Paul Epworth, Ewan Pearson and Danger Mouse.

Band multi-instrumentalist Gabriel S Andruzzi said:  “I would like to say that I am damn excited about this and can pretty much promise you a fantastic record, no... actually a stupendous album. Pretty much the best album of the century.”

“Oh yeah, the cover is going to totally rule as well. I'm not kidding around, I don't have a sense of humour, ask anyone.

“My goal is to make something very nice for you and your friends, hopefully keeping you entertained in this cruel and unfair world.”

Modesty is always the best policy.
