"Foster the People have been teasing their new LP for weeks, but they&amp;apos;ve finally revealed the details: Supermodel, the band&amp;apos;s second album,&amp;#xA0;will be released on March 18th on Columbia Records. The 12-track effort is led by the new single &amp;quot;Coming of Age,&amp;quot; which is built on bright guitar riffs, layered vocals and snappy handclaps. The track is available to stream below.\r\nFind Out Where Foster the People&amp;apos;s &amp;apos;Pumped Up Kicks&amp;apos; Landed on Our List of the Best Singles of 2011\r\nFoster the People broke out with their debut LP, 2011&amp;apos;s Torches,&amp;#xA0;and its ubiquitous single &amp;quot;Pumped Up Kicks.&amp;quot; In the wake of that success, frontman Mark Foster composed the score for Alejandro Monteverde&amp;apos;s film&amp;#xA0;Little Boy, which ended up inspiring the &amp;quot;more orchestral&amp;quot; direction of&amp;#xA0;Supermodel.&amp;#xA0;\r\n&amp;quot;Definitely working on the film and going to Prague and recording the orchestra, which I&amp;apos;d never done before &amp;#x2013; I&amp;apos;d never written a piece and then watched 50 musicians bring it to life &amp;#x2013; it&amp;apos;s one of the most powerful things I&amp;apos;ve ever been a part of, to see an orchestra construct an original piece of music,&amp;quot; Foster told&amp;#xA0;Rolling Stone&amp;#xA0;back in November.&amp;#xA0;\r\nFoster also notes the influence of &amp;quot;North and West Africa,&amp;quot; particularly on opener &amp;quot;Are You What You Wanna Be,&amp;quot; which features a &amp;quot;6/8 African shuffle rhythm in the verse.&amp;quot; Overall, he says the album was intended to be &amp;quot;more organic and human, because the first record was so electronic and synthetic.&amp;quot;\r\n&amp;quot;It&amp;apos;ll be interesting,&amp;quot; he says. &amp;quot;It&amp;apos;s not the record that people are gonna expect us to release second. It&amp;apos;s definitely an evolution for us, and it&amp;apos;s a more polarizing record for us, so I&amp;apos;m excited to see how it&amp;apos;s received, for better or worse.&amp;quot;\r\nTrack list for&amp;#xA0;Supermodel:\r\n1. &amp;quot;Are You What You Want to Be&amp;quot;2. &amp;quot;Ask Yourself&amp;quot;3. &amp;quot;Coming of Age&amp;quot;4. &amp;quot;Nevermind&amp;quot;5. &amp;quot;Pseudologia Fantastica&amp;quot;6. &amp;quot;The Angelic Welcome of Mr. Jones&amp;quot;7. &amp;quot;Best Friend&amp;quot;8. &amp;quot;A Beginner&amp;apos;s Guide to Destroying the Moon&amp;quot;9. &amp;quot;Goats in Trees&amp;quot;10. &amp;quot;The Truth&amp;quot;11. &amp;quot;Fire Escape&amp;quot;12. &amp;quot;Tabloid Super Junky&amp;quot;\r\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
