Ezra Koenig served up some fuzzy details about Vampire Weekend’s upcoming fourth album, as well as an explanation about why it took them so long to make it, in an Instagram post Thursday. He’s not ready yet to share the record’s title, but he did offer up its initials: FOTB. The record, due out this year, will contain 18 songs and clock in at 59 minutes; the vinyl edition will come out on two LPs. They’ll serve up a first taste of the record next week, with the group unveiling three two-song posts monthly until its release (which suggests a spring release date).
