Duran Duran fans are about to get some new music. The band announced on social media they’ll release the song “New Moon (Dark Phase)” on Sept 13. While they didn’t share much else about the release, it appears to be some sort of new mix of their Seven and The Ragged Tiger single “New Moon on Monday,” as the title of the original song is in the new song’s digital pre-save link. The artwork for the single seems similar to the art for their last album, the Halloween themed Danse Macabre, suggesting it may be a spookier version of the original tune. Duran Duran is continuing their embrace of Halloween with their upcoming U.S. tour, which kicks off Oct. 21 in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and includes The Danse Macabre Halloween Party, happening Oct. 31 at Madison Square Garden in New York. A complete list of dates can be found at duranduran.com.
