blonde redhead?

with two months before the release of 23, the new blonde redhead fell into my lap. the week prior to receiving the leaked album i was in a sonic youth mood but didn't want to listen to sonic youth so i put in the debut from blonde redhead. everything about the self-titled release echoes thurston and company, but as blonde redhead's discography grew so did the slant toward more melodic and lush production.

enter 23, the upcoming release that will no doubt usher in new fans and spawn the loss of some, which would be unfortunate. upon initial listen the album sounds tailored for a sophia coppola film by combining the hazy dissonance of my bloody valentine, the synth heavy dance music of new order and the sex sounds of air. enjoy these two previews of the new blonde redhead and don't forget to purchase on april 10th.
