The first 250 vinyl orders will also receive a photograph signed by all three band members. ‘Hidden In Pieces Live At The Royal Albert Hall’ primarily draws from the band’s two nights at the London venue in June last year , alongside recordings captured in San Diego, Chicago and New York during their intimate 25th-anniversary theatre tour.

Announcing the release, Karen O has said the tour “was born out of a need to commune with our band and fan family in 2025, after the election”.

“In the past, YYYs haven’t often chosen when to be back at it and out there, it often chooses us,” she continued.

“It, being the times.

We turn to live music when we need that specific quality of depth and light to see us through the times.” View this post on Instagram “The stakes were high, the Royal Albert Hall was the third play of the tour,” O explained.

“Most of this record is live from the hall.

It was our first time performing there and the hype leading up to it was overwhelming, but ladies and gentleman, we believe the hype now we’ve done it.

“The pipe organ moment in ‘Skeletons’ was no less than immaculate vibrations.

Nick remarked that he felt as though his fingers were guided on the guitar neck.

“The real alchemy happened when we played the hall, it clicked into place.
