The French synth-pop band is marking several important anniversaries with a new book for “superfans.”

According to Rolling Stone, guitarist and keyboard player Laurent Brancowitz, singer Thomas Mars, bassist Deck d’Arcy and guitarist Christian Mazzalai have a new book on the way. 

The forthcoming book titled Phoenix: Liberté, Égalité, Phoenix! is described as a “superfan’s chronicle of the evolution of a band.” According to the outlet, it will feature original interviews conducted by The Guardian deputy music editor Laura Snapes; it will also draw on the members’ personal archives. 

The book will mark three anniversaries for the group — the band’s 30th anniversary, the 20th anniversary of their debut Untitled and the 10th anniversary of their breakthrough Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix.

Phoenix: Liberté, Égalité, Phoenix! is due out October 15.
