The band performed at the South by Southwest festival in March 2010. On 13 July 2010, they released their first album, the self-titled New Politics . It featured ten tracks, including the hit single ” Yeah Yeah Yeah “. An official video was filmed in New York City for this single. The album received a mixed review from Allmusic , noting the band’s influences were too obvious. They embarked on a 30-date tour of the US to promote the album, and supported Thirty Seconds to Mars on the Into the Wild Tour in September and October 2010. They made a second video for their single “Dignity”, and released it on Myspace .com on 8 October 2010. Like “Yeah Yeah Yeah,” this video was filmed in New York City. In autumn of 2010, Amaliel left the band to return to Denmark.
