Issued on June 4 via Matador Records, the disc follows up "Era Vulgaris", which opened with 52,000 units back in June 2007 to enter the chart at No. 14. The band's 2005 offering "Lullabies to Paralyze" registered a first-week tally of nearly 97,000 copies, to debut at No. 5.Described by Homme as "an audio documentary of a manic year," "...Like Clockwork" is the band's first full-length collection of all new material since 2007's "Era Vulgaris", as well as its debut release on new label partner Matador.
