[News] James Blake Details New LP, Stream Lead Single
Just last week, James Blake announced that his sophomore album, the follow-up to his impressive 2011 self-titled debut, was to be released later this year. Today, though, he slipped some exciting information into the blogosphere, announcing that the album will be titled Overgrown and is set to release on April 8th.
Blake also announced that later today, the lead single from the album, titled "Retrograde", will premiere on BBC Radio 1. We will post the radio stream once its available, but in the meantime you can stream a live concert recording of the song below. As well, after the jump, you can check out all the dates for Blake's upcoming North American tour.
UPDATE: You can now stream the radio rip of the single, which premiered on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show, below. The song starts at around 1:09, after some charming banter between Blake and Lowe.
[Album Stream] Darwin Deez - 'Songs For Imaginative People'
Darwin Deez, applying the most subtle of tactics, has snuck up nearly out of nowhere (save for an album announcement last November) with his sophomore album Songs For Imaginative People. With the LP set to release next Tuesday, the Darwin-led outfit is giving us the chance to stream the whole thing prior to its release. Listen to all ten tracks from the "rockier and wordier" album below, and hit the jump to read a track-by-track guide written by Darwin Deez himself.
Songs For Imaginative People is out on February 12th.

[News] Vampire Weekend Detail New Album, 'Modern Vampires of the City'
Using methods wholly different from the usual press release format, Vampire Weekend took to the New York Times classified section to detail their upcoming third album. The band tweeted early yesterday morning, simply saying, "NYT classifieds...", and for those dedicated enough would have found this simply entry in the "Notices & Lost and Found" section: "Modern Vampires of the City, May 7, 2013". It has been confirmed that the previously unnamed LP will be titled Modern Vampires of the City, with a firm release date of May 7th. Check out the classified ad below.
On top of detailing the album, the New York outfit have announced a North American tour, which includes stops at both SXSW and Coachella. Check out their tour schedule, along with the tracklisting for Modern Vampires of the City, after the jump.
