Motor City pop duo Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. have announced the release of their new album, The Speed of Things. The follow-up to their 2011 debut It’s a Corporate World, the forthcoming LP is due out Oct. 8 on Warner Bros. “We really couldn’t be more excited to release The Speed Of Things,” explains the band in a statement. “It’s a record that means a great deal to us, as it focuses on the size and speed of the world today. Everything is moving faster and faster as we are all much more connected by the global central nervous system that is the internet. Often it feels like when one realizes what they wish to do, it’s impossible to know where to begin due to the scale of everything. We’re a generation full of false starts.”

Featuring tracks that appeared on the pair’s recent EP Patterns, including their single “If You Didn’t See Me (Then You Weren’t On The Dancefloor)”, the record’s complete tracklist can be found below, as well as the band’s current tour schedule.
