    Brockhampton are looking to drop a new album for the US summer (our winter) that Kevin Abstract is describing as "feel-good".

    In a new interview with GQ the Brockhampton head-honcho discussed what the group is currently up to and it sounds like they're working on a record.

    "We want to make a summer album," he said.

    "Feel-good. Not too sad and like, "Oh, our life sucks," just more like, "Just enjoy what's in front of you."

    He compared the new material to Outkast's Hey Ya! and revealed that it's about real feelings put over music that people can boogie to.

    "Something we're doing is putting those type of lyrics — like this shit is trash, anxiety, depression, all that stuff — taking those type of lyrics and putting it on a song that a bunch of people could dance to or something."

    Their last album Iridescence dropped last year and this gap between the records marks their largest yet. Abstract said the group needed the time to "live life".

    Abstract has been busy still, dropping a solo record ARIZONA BABY earlier this year. 

    Brockhampton will play FOMO Festival earlier next year and by the sounds of it they're going to have a new record to play.
