The Old Man's Back Again


In an unbelievable and exquisite twist in the plot of the universe, Scott Walker is to release a new EP next month, only a year after his last album, The Drift came out. It is perhaps not entirely accurate to say that this breaks his usual eleven-year gap between albums, since it is a twenty-five minute instrumental piece commissioned for a contemporary dance troupe of disabled and non-disabled dancers (see the trailer here), and since it is limited to 2,500 copies.

Nonetheless, I'm rather excited.
