Entitled Graffiti Soul, the album is the follow-up to 2005's Black & White 050505.
Frontman Jim Kerr said:"Stylistically, this is a truly vibrant rock 'n' roll album that's bursting at the seams with quite possibly the most ballsy pop songs we have written in years."

Graffiti Soul will be availble from Universal Records on May 25, 2009.
