Setting up shop beside the looming presence Walmart, Target, McDonalds, Starbucks and meaninglessness, Titus Andronicus have revealed the follow-up to the loosely civil-war themed The Monitor, the DIY-centric third record Local Business. The record is set to drop October 23 via XL Recordings. Above is the new lineup of Titus Andronicus after the departure of guitarist Amy Klein, bassist Ian Graetzer and Patrick Stickles beard. We’ve heard quite a bit of the record already (see here and here), including the Electric Man song inspired by the time lead singer Patrick Stickles was literally electrocuted while playing guitar. Check out the tracklist below and try and guess which song will be the longest.

Local Business track listing:

01 Ecce Homo
02 Still Life With Hot Deuce and Silver Platter
03 Upon Viewing Oregon’s Landscape With the Flood of Detritus
04 Food Fight!
05 My Eating Disorder
06 Titus Andronicus VS. the Absurd Universe (3rd Round KO)
07 In a Big City
