Available in multiple formats and on multiple platforms here (including a very on-theme bundle that includes a teal-colored velcro wallet), “The Teal Album” features the band’s hit cover of Toto’s “Africa,” in addition to covers from a wide variety of artists from Black Sabbath to TLC. (Full track listing is below.)
“The Teal Album” comes a little over two months before the current March 1 release of the band’s highly-anticipated “The Black Album,” their 13th studio album.
