\n\tInterscope\/Capitol Records is set to begin working \u201cNormal\u201d to the format as of the week beginning July 27.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe ninth track on the LP follows \u201cSWIM,\u201d the set\u2019s seventh cut, which soared in at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100<\/a> concurrent with the No. 1 Billboard 200<\/a> arrival of ARIRANG in April.
