In September, New York alt-rock outfit Blonde Redhead will return with their first new album in four years. Entitled Barragán, the follow-up to 2010’s Penny Sparkle spans 10 songs and was produced, engineered, and mixed by Drew Brown (Radiohead, Beck) at studios in Michigan and New York City. It will be released on September 9th via Kobalt Records.
As our first taste, the band’s unveiled “No More Honey”. It’s a sleek, minimalist rock ballad marked by crunchy bass chords, uneven percussion, and Kazu Makin’s slightly haggard croon.
Barragán Tracklist:
01. Barragán
02. Lady M
03. Dripping
04. Cat on Tin Roof
05. The One I Love
06. No More Honey
07. Mine to Be Had
