Latch, lead single from their debut album Settle, earned both Smith and Disclosure worldwide recognition after it climbed to Number 11 on the UK’s Official Singles Chart in late 2012, and then managed to reach to Number 7 in the US over 18 months later.
The release of the Omen, which was written with Jimmy Napes, impending arrival into the world even managed to bump to No. 2 on the Billboard + Twitter Trending 140. Recently the duo also managed to reach No. 1 on the same chart with Holding On.
Their sophomore album is set for a September 25 release and will also feature the likes of Lion Babe, Kwabs and Nao. Another heavy-hitter confirmed for the album is non-other than Kiwi Lorde herself.
