Alison Mosshart shares new spoken word track "Animals"
Alison Mosshart, best known as one half of The Kills, has released new spoken word track "Animals", which will feature on her upcoming spoken word LP Sound Wheel.
Mosshart first announced her Sound Wheel album last month with the lead piece "Returning The Screw".
Sound Wheel will be a companion album to her forthcoming book of art, poems and short stories, Car Ma.
Today (20 July), Mosshart has released another spoken word piece called "Animals".
Mosshart says of the spoken word album, "When I was writing Car Ma, there were some passages I struggled to get right, and I got in the practice of reading them out loud and recording them, to hear and feel where words or sentences were rubbing together wrong. I’d listen back to these recordings and they’d be real informative to me in that way. This tool I was using to help me, started feeling like this whole other angle or art form. And I started thinking it would be interesting to perform/record the whole book, not in a straight up spoken word way, but more like a sound sculpture of characters and voices and miscellaneous cut ups, no rules."
The singer/songwriter has also released two solo singles this year - "It Ain't Water" and "Rise".
- Squid present new single, "The Hearth And Circle Round Fire"
- Lola Young is most nominated artist at this year's Ivor Novello Awards
