LISTEN: Tomorrow, In a Year by The Knife (via NPR)
NPR’s streaming The Knife’s new Darwinian electro-opera titled Tomorrow, In a Year. Make sure to take a listen really quickly because NPR will only be streaming until the digital release of the tracks on Feb 2nd. The Knife, however, released one of the tracks “The Colouring of Pigeons” for free download. There’s also much more information located here, including lyrics if you need to confirm that they are really singing about salmon and cocoons.
