Blonde Redhead’s Penny Sparkle: Tracklist + 3 Songs

The first single, “Here Sometimes,” off Blonde Redhead’s follow-up to their 2007 LP, 23, (and this year’s Dungeons and Dragons documentary score) made their forthcoming record, Penny Sparkle, one of my most anticipated releases for the fall. In addition to that dreamy 5-minute jam, new song “Not Getting There” reached our ears in the spring and now we have a tracklist, as well as a live clip of the trio performing the third track earlier this week in NYC, to put these previews into context. In fact, “Here Sometimes, “Not Getting There,” and now “Will There Be Stars” are the first 3 songs off the Alan Moulder-mixed record, respectively.
