A mere day after announcing a new split 10″ with his fiancée, Locket Pundt – aka Lotus Plaza – has turned word of a new album due later this year into confirmed reality. His next album will be called Spooky Action at a Distance and will hit the shelves on 2nd April, coming near enough two years after 2009’s The Floodlight Collective. Like his last album, he’ll once again be releasing it on Kranky. Check out the tracklisting after the jump.
