Karen O and Danger Mouse will release their collaborative album this summer.
Named after their previously released epic nine-minute single, Lux Prima, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs vocalist and producer have now confirmed that the full length will arrive on March 15 via BMG, following details of the joint effort first emerging along with its title track last November.
The duo have also released a second cut from its tracklist, Woman, which features some empowering lyrics over the top of a vigorous beat. In a statement about the song via DIY, Karen O said:
"Woman came like a bolt out of the blue when we were in the studio. We did a first pass where I was blurting unintelligible words and Danger Mouse and I were like, 'Dang! That was intense.
The atmosphere was volatile with it being just after the election. A lot of people felt helpless like you do when you’re a scared kid looking for assurance that everything is gonna be alright. I like to write songs that anyone can relate to but this one felt especially for the inner child in me that needed the bullies out there to know you don’t fuck with me. I’m a woman now and I’ll protect that inner girl in me from hell and high water."
