Although I haven’t listened to a ton of Blonde Redhead, I still grant them a ton of respect for being a pillar of the indie rock scene, continually putting out solid, and popular albums without giving into basic tropes. Their upcoming LP, Sit Down For Dinner, arrives September 29th via new label home section1.

The newest single, “Before”, uncoils like smoke over a spire-like castle. Singer Kazu Makino singing like she’s trapped at the top, with soft guitars swirling a melancholy melody in the mix. A wonderful dream pop experience, tinged with dread, grief and confusion. Trust me, it’s a wonderful experience.
