Arcade Fire sets release date for 'Everything Now,' announces tour

TORONTO - Arcade Fire's new album "Everything Now" will be available on July 28 but the band has given fans something to digest in the meantime.

The Quebec art-rock band dropped the upbeat title track on streaming services Thursday and announced eight Canadian tour dates, starting with a Quebec City show on Sept. 5.

The band had been cryptically teasing fans about the long-rumoured album for weeks.

A few days ago, the band issued a limited vinyl edition of the single "Everything Now" -- but it was sold only at a music festival in Spain.

The full physical album will be available in various formats, including CD, cassette and a limited edition black vinyl with 20 variations of the artwork in 20 different languages.

Arcade Fire's upcoming Canadian tour dates:

Sept. 5: Quebec City, Videotron Centre

Sept. 6: Montreal, Bell Centre

Sept. 9: Ottawa, Canadian Tire Centre

Oct. 11: Edmonton, Rogers Place

Oct. 12: Calgary, Scotiabank Saddledome

Oct. 14: Vancouver, Pacific Coliseum

Nov. 1: Windsor, WCFU Centre

Nov. 3: Toronto, Air Canada Centre
