Blonde Redhead release their next album, Penny Sparkle, through 4AD next Monday. They've already given a track away from it but now you can preview the whole thing, courtesy of the ever-reliable and ever-brilliant National Public Radio. They do this thing quite often, so it's worth keeping your eyes and ears peeled.
Click here to indulge and even read a little bit of editorial about the record. Just to refresh your memory, we've posted the tracklisting and album art below:
• Here Sometimes
• Not Getting There
