According to Arts&Crafts, Broken Social Scene are releasing a new, as-yet untitled album May 4. The core six members of Broken Social Scene — Kevin Drew, singer-bassist Brendan Canning, drummer Justin Peroff, guitarist Charles Spearin, singer-guitarist Andrew Whiteman, and Sam Goldberg — wrote and arranged the new record, but don’t worry: your favorite Canadian indie heroes, like Feist, Metric’s Emily Haines, and Jimmy Shaw, will be making appearances too. The album, their first since 2005’s self-titled release, was co-produced by the band and John McEntire (Tortoise) in Chicago and Toronto.
