NPR Shares First Listen to Typhoon's New Album 'Offerings'  Image

Today NPR's First Listen has offered up an advance play of contemplative indie rockers Typhoon's forthcoming new album Offerings which will be released January 12th via Roll Call Records. CD / 2XLP PRE-ORDER AVAILABLE NOW

"The fourth album Offerings [is] the most ominous and sonically dramatic record from Typhoon," shares NPR's Bob Boilen. "This album of brilliant storytelling, clocking in at almost 2300 words, is worth dissecting and poring over. Unlike previous music from Typhoon, where roughly a dozen musicians normally includes big and uplifting brass, this one is more guitar-centric, with dark string arrangements. After listening to it, I texted my All Songs Considered co-host Robin Hilton the following: "good lord this Typhoon album is brilliant ... haven't cried listening to a record since [Sufjan Stevens']
Carrie And Lowell." Offerings is truly a wise and ruminative record."
