Few more tracks on this release are now available via Apple Music - great stuff!

Colossal and Grouch

Also, a bonus for TR/ST fans - a song called Destroyer, which I don't think has seen commercial release:

Taking Boo too see TRST live in May, the new songs are great, I'm hyped!

Going to the Portland show as well. Super excited, should be a great time.

Album has been released. It's great.

Indeed; fantastic album - hopefully the -1 means there is a second part planned because 8 tracks isn't enough TR/ST in my life...

Well you have the debut album and Joyland too. All great.

Also Austra is a good listen.

Well, yes of course - it was actually @six who got me turned on to TR/ST by using "shoom" in one of his Smash TV Memorex videos:

The Destroyer -- 1, which Alfons considers "really intense, sort of promiscuous in its sound," and certainly more uptempo -- is coming on April 19, while the "darker" The Destroyer -- 2 will be out later in the year. Alfons recorded the combined 16 tracks during a variety of sessions, some in Los Angeles, some in a rural, isolated Ontario farmhouse, where he was inspired by "the living plant world around me." The songs, meanwhile, find him grappling with the wake of frenetic activity around 2012's TRST and 2014's Joyland.

 

I really want to like this but guy’s voice is a little too David Gray for comfort.

Now you have me intrigued - his odd singing voice is part of the attraction for me as I have never really heard someone sing like that. I'll have to check David Gray out!
