Scissor Sisters have unveiled details of Magic Hour, their "future-pop" fourth album. While the world awaits their soundtrack for the forthcoming Fraggle Rock movie, the New York band will release their new LP on 28 May.

Magic Hour has been hotly anticipated since Scissor Sisters' released its first single, Shady Love, in January. The track was notable for frontman Jake Shears rapping over Alexander Ridha's oscillating beat, with a cameo by Krystal Pepsy – aka Azealia Banks. The album also features collaborations with Diplo, Pharrell Williams and Calvin Harris.

"[Magic Hour] is a sweet joyful melange of beat-driven future-pop," Shears said. "It style-hops all over the place unabashedly." The next single will be Only the Horses, co-produced by Harris, due on 20 May. "When we wrote Horses, I immediately knew [Calvin]'d help knock it out of the park," Shears said.

Tickets are now on sale for Scissor Sisters' only 2012 gigs announced so far: London's Shepherd's Bush Empire on 16 and 17 May.

Scissor Sisters have sold more than 5m copies of their first two albums. But their 2010 follow-up was a different story: unlike the multi-platinum Ta-Dah and Scissor Sisters, Night Work only managed to go gold. It debuted at No 2.
