Looks like it's not even coming in March now...
Here's the official statement from them :
Quote:
The upcoming album, "FREE THE UNIVERSE," has been been kidnapped by General Rubbish and we all must embark on an epic journey to upset his evil plan so we can free the universe as planned with the album.
Our fans are the most important part of what makes Major Lazer what it is. It is with that consideration that "FREE THE UNIVERSE" will not be released this month as previously scheduled. We never want to disappoint our supporters but circumstances out of our control have made us unable to keep the intended date. For anyone disappointed, we are truly apologetic and we promise that this hiccup has only made what we have planned for the album stronger. We tried extremely hard to keep the date but it was ultimately decided that rushing the album would have been unfair to you and everyone who worked so hard on it. An iTunes exclusive pre-order in the US will launch next Tuesday, 2/26 which will feature an instant grat download of "Watch Out for This (Bumaye)."
In the mean time, please download LAZER STRIKES BACK Vol. 1. here: http://t.opsp.in/s08cS We will be putting out 3 volumes of music on-line until album release.
LAZER STRIKES BACK Vol. 1
1. Major Lazer & Flux Pavilion - Jah No Partial (Jack Beats Remix)
2. Major Lazer - Get Free feat. Amber of Dirty Projectors (Yellow Claw Get Free Money Remix)
3. Major Lazer - Original Don feat. The Partysquad (DGRC Remix)
4. Hot Chip - Look At Where We Are (Major Lazer Extended Remix)
Much Love.

I really don't understand why the album would have to be rushed. This is the third big delay. What's the point of settling on a date when the album isn't close to being finished. Annoys me... and remixes do nothing for me when there's millions on youtube. If it was unreleased songs I would of accepted the apology. Considering they're on tour, I feel this will be another year delay. -_-
