What a Wednesday! Today, we've got new music (finally!) from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

Karen O, Nick Zinner and Brian Chase today released their epic new single "Spitting Off the Edge of the World," a collaboration with Perfume Genius they had first teased last week. The news comes along with confirmation of their fifth studio album Cool It Down, which is coming Sept. 30 via Secretly Canadian. It's their first new music in over nine years. Nine years!!

Speaking on the song's reflection of the state of the environment and the need for honesty about the damage occurring to the planet, Karen O says: “I see the younger generations staring down this threat, and they’re standing on the edge of a precipice, confronting what’s coming with anger and defiance. It’s galvanizing, and there’s hope there.”

The song is accompanied by a video directed by the band's longtime collaborator Cody Critcheloe (aka Ssion).
