\"Dirty<\/a>For nearly five years, we have been waiting with bated breath for a new album from Dirty Projectors<\/a>. They are officially back, with their seventh album due next month. The outfit of Dave Longstreth had already teased the follow-up to 2012’s Swing Lo Magellan<\/em> with \u2018Keep Your Name<\/a>\u2019 and \u2018Little Bubble<\/a>\u2019. Now that an eponymous album has been confirmed, Dirty Projectors are enticing us further with another exquisitely wonderful cut from it called ‘Up In Hudson’. The song “is an elegy \u2014 to the Obama years, to a generation of indie rock, and to a relationship”, describes the press release. “Over the course of nine verses and almost eight minutes, the lyrics situate David Longstreth & his band in the vivid textures of the recent past like a millennial Blood On The Tracks.”<\/p>\n

Dirty Projectors<\/em> arrives on February 24th via Domino<\/a>. Till then, we’ll be listening to ‘Up In Hudson’ over and over again. And you might too.<\/p>\n
