[NelsonG]

Arca has announced a new self-titled album. The record, which follows his 2015 album Mutant, is out April 7 via XL Recordings. It’s his first release for the label. Arca has also shared the opening track, “Piel.” Hear it below. Scroll down for the tracklist and the amazing cover artwork by longtime collaborator Jesse Kanda.

Arca includes the previously shared “Sin Rumbo.” Last year, the artist released a free 14-track project called Entrañas. This past November, he issued a casting call for a mysterious project with Kanda. The only requirement was that applicants “are comfortable being partially nude on camera.”
