UK rock band Nothing But Thieves have released their fifth studio album, Stray Dogs, via RCA/Sony Music. The record is about belonging and the community the band has built over a decade. In their words: "'Stray Dogs' is about finding your people, coming together and connecting through live music."

The band returned to Angelic Studios, where they made their debut, and wrote the album together over a dedicated five-month stretch instead of on the road. It was produced entirely by guitarist Dom Craik for the first time and engineered by Mark Rankin (QOTSA, Iggy Pop). The 12 tracks are sequenced to run like a night on stage, with the epic focus track "#5." Singles so far: "Evolution," "Stray Dogs," "Baby Kool (Evelyn)" and "A Different Kind of Happiness."
